Be funny as hell if this ends up happening. Musk would get to go private after all, sort of, as a subsidiary and Apple gets to further diversify itself as well as combine it's automous tech with Tesla chip & data.

Apple reportedly offered to buy Tesla at around $240 per share back in 2013.

The bid from six years ago is now being reported as Tesla’s share price has dipped under the price Apple was allegedly willing to pay.

Today, Craig Irwin, senior research analyst at Roth Capital Partners, went on CNBC and talked about the bid:

“Around 2013, there was a serious bid from Apple at around $240 a share.”

The analyst didn’t disclose his sources, but he added:

“This is something we did multiple checks on. I have complete confidence that this is accurate. Apple bid for Tesla. I don’t know if it got to a formal paperwork stage, but I know from multiple different sources that this was very credible.”

Irwin argues that Apple could still have interest in purchasing Tesla – especially since Tesla’s valuation has taken a major hit over the past months.
