TESLA Motors IPO - Anyone taking the plunge?

[Driven28]

So the Tesla IPO is reportedly happening "any day now"... I'm sooooooo tempted to throw my last $10k into this IPO. Just for the sheer fact that most of their press has been positive, and I generally think America looks favorably upon them.

I don't think their approach to the electric car is what we need at this moment... quite the opposite actually, we need a low-cost solution that is a major game-changer. However, given the current state of technology (read: crappy battery tech), I understand that we have to start somewhere. I guess the hi-end exotic market is as good as any.

Anyway... I have a feeling this thing IPO is going to explode, at least temporarily. Anyone agree, disagree, or otherwise?


FYI - THIS IS NOT INVESTMENT ADVICE!!
