It's not a good time to buy a stock. The market is pure speculation, which is why you have this phenomena of twitter assholes (TSLAQ) being sure that every bit of bad news is sign that the company is about to go bankrupt, and all of their stock shorts are suddenly going to make them the next Gordon Gekko. Couple that with the fact that Tesla is a really volatile company, none of my money would go there.

On the other hand, a company with zero self-driving cars in the hands of consumers is supposedly being values in capital raises at $75 billion, while VW is about to pour $50 billion into their EV efforts. Tesla is way ahead of them in adopted augmented driving, battery chemistry (which is theirs, not Panasonics) and electric drivetrains.

In terms of cars, absolutely. The Model 3 SR+ is awesome. I have a MR and love it.
