The Verge: Behind the scenes at Faraday Future, an electric carmaker on the brink of collapse

There's some goofy reporting here. They keep referring to "former Nissan factory". I had to look up where FF is based. It's based in Gardena, CA. I'm unaware of Nissan ever having a plant on the US West Coast. Their North American HQ used to be in Gardena (http://articles.latimes.com/2005/nov/11 ... i-nissan11) before they moved to TN. This is probably what the article is talking about.
I've been confused about the relationship between LeEco and FF. They made a bunch of noise with http://nbr.com/2016/10/19/leecos-push-i ... -s-market/ (and other stuff earlier) yet a few weeks later, it was widely reported that LeEco was running out of cash:
