In this video, Motley Fool analysts John Reeves and David Meier take a look at the incredible run that shares of Tesla Motors (TSLA 3.85%) have been on recently, and what makes this one of the most remarkable investing stories of the year so far. They then take a look at what it would take to justify an investment in Tesla Motors at these prices and, just for fun, they speculate on whether an investment in Tesla today would match up with the investing style of Peter Lynch.
