Tesla close on loan to build Model S

The loan was approved awhile back but they actually have the cash spilling out of their pockets now.

I guess Franz gets to stay employed a little longer

Nice! I've also followed the Model S for some time now... and I just say THE CAR IS FREAKING GORGEOUS.

I'd love to have one, but I bet everybody does too.

I was at the Philadelphia auto show today and a Tesla rep was telling me there is going to be an initial public offering soon. Didn't know they were going public.
