In the early days, Winchester filed for bankruptcy several times...only to rise from the ashes with less debt, and in possession of even more of their competitors patents, which they had purchased with investors money.

I admit I skimmed over the article pretty quick but I looks like Tesla itself is still fine, they just stopped production of the roadster to focus on their sedan.

It looks like they will be bought up by the big guys soon enough. Partnering is just a nice way of saying getting ready to sell out...

The roadster is fun, but fairly poor for normal car duty.

The S is something that works for everyone.

The roadster is a fine electric car. There is a tesla dealership down the street from my shop. If the economy was doing better tesla would have higher sales volume of the roadster.

How much does the tesla roadster costs?
I'm not sure that the customer target is much hit by crashing economy...
Everybody don't loose money in these times.
