We know that the Tesla Roadster is headed to Europe. Part of getting ready for the European market means doing a little bit of promotion, and so Tesla Motors presented the Roadster at the Top Marques Monaco event this past weekend. Tesla's vice president of sales, marketing, and service, Darryl Siry, has posted a few pictures of the event, including one of Mr. U2 himself - Bono - having a seat in the show car. Siry says that he'll be posting a more detailed description of how some of Tesla's first European customers and "potential future customers" reacted to seeing the car in the metal, but for now he just wanted to share the pics. I wonder how Monaco's hydrogen-loving Prince Albert II feels about all of this.[Source: Tesla]
