Genuinely surprised he's actually in his own shitty cars and not a Rolls Royce or something.
Elon Musk has made Tesla part of his personality and is the public face of the company. He's stupid on many levels, but I don't think he's this stupid.
I wonder how many of the crazy design "features" in those cars are just for his personal indulgence. Like the Model S plad wheel that looks like the yoke on a 747 and which was completely unnecessary and (from what I've heard) less usable than the standard wheel.
I mean its a fun "cool" thing if he had build like a 100 of them not take it into production.
