    All I can think of when I look at this car is EVE from the Wall-E movie...

    I'm sure they're just taking a break to recharge their batteries.

    @Alfisted: They're powering up over the holidays so hopefully their sales can surge in 2010. I don't know about you but I'm amped for its debut.

    @vwminispeedster, pronounded Si-trow-in: It's unfortunate that they're getting some resistance from their own staff.

    @Alfisted: They obviously don't have the capacitance for unique points of view.

    "Aptera's production and delivery will be tied directly to funding," said Wilbur.


    It's a bad sign when Captain Obvious has to step down. We're definitely not getting the full story on this one. Maybe new funding hinges on new leadership for the "angel investor".

    The founders took themselves a permanent vacation.

    The sky's the limit, but their plane won't fly.


    /apologies to Aerosmith.

    That car looks like it should be able to fly. Because I know it can't, I'm already disappointed....pointed...pointed...

    I understand economies of scale, but I still don't get how these entrepreneurs can run multiple disparate companies at the same time. Maybe they can't, which could be the reason for all of this.
