Well Aptera always did know how to bring the drama...


Team A had exciting drama...can a small start up really bring such a revoluntary car from concept to fruition? Can they compete with the big boys?

Team B had suspenseful drama...when and how spectacularly will they crash and burn...

Even with the doors closing they find a way to keep that drama spinning...

??? I'm still confused. Any "truth" to TruthSeeker's story?

What job? As of yesterday, wasn't everyone let go?

There might be a germ of truth there, but as a whole it doesn't add up.

Thanks, Chris.

I guess every forum gets one of those...

Default really?

Is this really how they communicated the end to the subscribers? I never recieved an official email saying that they closed the doors. If I wasn't a forum follower and had already known about it, that cryptic one sentence," ...turning the page on the 3 wheeler..." would be a horrible way of finding out.

I personally am furious about the whole thing. I had held out hope that the quality of the idea would carry the project through no matter how poorly executed.

I now believe that Paul Wilbur did his job to perfection.

He was a Detroit mole sent in to sabotage the endeavour.

I love the idea of the original project rising from the ashes. I still want to hope.
