If a company has a promising product I would invest if I could control the company - directly or indirectly/silently. I doubt that Daimler has any interest in the cars that Tesla produces, it's the patents & parts that I figure they are interested in. If Daimler does end up buying Tesla out I doubt that you'll ever see another Tesla automobile. To me the Roadster & S are distractions from the Tech & IP that Tesla should focus on and then sell the parts to auto manufacturers.
