- _jal 7y agoThe funny part, of course, is the $35k pricing only 3 months ago. Imagine iPhone prices flipping around like that. Sure, different products, different markets, different pressures. None of which mean you're obligated to keep tweeting stupid numbers just to reverse them once you're not stoned.
- netcan 7y agoIf iPhone prices went up by $9, I don't think it'd make the HN homepage. Tesla's just in super-interesting mode.
- _jal 7y agoPretty sure if Apple announced a cheap model and subsequently publicly waffled on the pricing multiple times in a short time span, people would pay attention. It isn't about one pricing delta, it is about repeatedly being "super interesting".
- new_realist 7y agoThey could be production limited, but they could also be demand limited, if there's a small pool of customers who want a Tesla but are relatively price insensitive.
