This company if it ever really becomes a company instead of just an
investment vehicle is a bad place to put your money because its
business plan is stupid. Making a high end roadster to sell to the
well healed might seem like a good idea unfortunately there will never
be enough people with a hundred thousand dollars to spend to keep the
factory pumping out cars. Unless Tesla changes its marketing ideas and
builds an affordable car for the masses they will never be much more
then a boutique company supplying only those that can afford their
over priced product.

Sorry, but I don't agree with most of them, which only proves beauty is in
the eyes of the beholder. Some of these cars are truly beautiful, and some
are just plain funky, which makes them just plain lovable. I mean, common.
The Enzo is one of the ugliest cars of all time? It's supposed to look like
a street legal F1, and the shape embodies that. Somebody in the
neighborhood has one, and whenever he parks it in town it draws a crowd
faster than you can say Enzo. And the exhaust note is even more beautiful
than the car itself.
The new Beetle? You have to admit it's cute, and does a good job of
updating the original bug. And the Prius? Yeah, it's no Ferrari, but it
beats the pants off most race cars in a wind tunnel.
The Element? Okay, I'll give you that one, but if you need a box on wheels
to haul stuff it looks pretty good.
What do they consider the 50 most beautiful cars?
