  2012 Tesla revenue
  Q1 30m
  Q2 27m
  Q3 50m

So you're saying that in q4, they will post 293m in revenue? Wow, that's some impressive BS you're willing to believe.

Allegedly JP Morgan estimates $275.5M, and this analyst describes that as "tepid".

In fact, even the articles you link all point to a plan that involves $400M revenue for the year, and each article indicates that they're on-plan. Of course, the plan COULD be wrong, and it could be deceitfully wrong, but it seems utterly plausible, and apparently all analysts agree (within say 10%).

And also you're being needlessly rude.

3.000 cars at $80.000,00 = 240m. Their initial estimate was 5k deliveries in the quarter.
