Tesla vs. Top Gear

Remember back in 2008, when Jeremy Clarkson reviewed the then-new Tesla Roadster and portrayed it as a barely-running science experiment that couldn't survive a full day at the Top Gear track? At the time, Tesla bristled at the BBC's insinuations. But in a somewhat rambling keynote during a Tesla shareholder's meeting yesterday, CEO Elon Musk basically admitted that the Roadster project was a complete debacle.

What ever happened to the lawsuit anyways?

I like this part too:

Musk's ambitions for increased Tesla production are nearly laughable. He's already said that the Model 3, the long-promised $35,000 Tesla meant to bring practical electric cars to the masses, will likely be delayed. The recently-introduced Model X SUV has had so many quality-control problems, Musk has been living out of a sleeping bag at the end of the assembly line to monitor production.

Was dismissed by a UK appeals court in 2013.
