I was sort of hoping the brand would stay in the elite space and not make an everyman&#x27;s car. A 35k electric car is cool, but I like the wow factor that Tesla currently has. Like saying &quot;I bought a Porsche&quot; and it turns out to be a Boxster, not a 911.<p>EDIT: I&#x27;m not saying this is a bad strategy for Tesla - it&#x27;s great for them, I&#x27;m saying it makes it less valuable to me, one lone consumer since a Tesla will become less and less of a status symbol. That&#x27;s it.
