So this article just popped up on my guardian feed…wild stuff. I’m not a fan of Musk but you gotta admit this is pretty interesting.

“I’m not sure it’s necessarily legal in all jurisdictions,” Musk said, adding that the prototype was “not necessarily a safety optimised car but it takes the fun meter to 11”.

    I think what will happen is the full awesome version will be released but will be illegal to drive on the street everywhere except some place like Dubai, and even then only outside cites. The normal version will have everything stripped by the NTSB, and will end up just a fast electric sports car.
