They aren't going to tell us the price until just before it goes on sale? I'm guessing that means it isn't a very impressive price.

How are they going to deal with the "First86" when we don't even know the price. I mean sure, it's a fully refundable deposit, but it is kinda wonky.

Still, I'll be signing up anyway.

So... no new info? This is frustrating to say the least. I am on the verge of losing interest in this car rather quickly, but I suppose that's my fault for assuming we were going to get new info today.
