Perhaps the most talked about new car<\/a> to appear in recent years that almost no one has actually driven yet is the Tesla Roadster<\/a>. The impressive thing about this is that they have managed to pre-sell hundreds of these cars without spending a dime on advertising<\/a> (aside from whatever was spent on a couple of press introductions). Certainly this site is as guilty as any when it comes to jumping on this bandwagon, although we honestly think that Tesla<\/a> is onto something really special here and we have reported the bad news as well as the good.<\/p>\n

We reported the other day about the Tesla Roadster being one of the featured vehicles in the upcoming Project Gotham Racing 4<\/a> for the XBox 360 and now Marketing VP Darryl Siry has picked that up and expanded<\/a> on the subject of product placement for the Roadster. As might be expected for a car that has gotten so much attention, Darryl has received a lot of offers to the Roadster. Unfortunately product placement can be hit of miss because there is no guarantee of a film's success. Ford<\/a> did well with the presence of the Aston Martins<\/a>, Land Rovers<\/a> and Mondeos in the last Bond film. However Chrysler<\/a> got burned with for the $3 million they spent to get Jeeps<\/a> used in the movie Sahara which about three people actually saw.<\/p>\n
