I still haven't gotten an email from Tesla yet about this test drive :(

Have people gotten emails about this already? I'm a reservation holder and haven't received test drive info yet.

I agree with this post 100%!

ouch, someone at work has a Karma and his is in the shop too. He's got a blog on which he mentions how its been in the shop more than its been with him. I've never been bullish on Fisker. I think their design is great, but thats about it. It'll probably fail.

lolwut, now I'm intrigued!! I was hoping all 4 were newer Betas since they might have tuned the interior a bit. If 2 a the older ones I wonder if they are just there to show the difference and change from Beta to RC.

so excited, can't wait to see how they've changed the cabin interior.

They've been talking about this for a while, but doubt it'll pass during this election year. Maybe next year, but it'll still take a miracle.

An iPhone dock is so important to me. I love my Bmw, just cos of the iphone dock. I'd rather not fiddle around with cables and leave the phone prone to move.

A 1 month old F30 BMW 328i!!

lol, I just sold the RX-8 and got an F30 328i. I miss the rotary though and hope Mazda brings it back someday.

lol, you want a random Model S sighting. here you go. I live in Palo Alto and see them all the time especially on Page Mill Road. This one was driving in front of me , debadged and pretty dirty. This was taken about 6 months ago before the Beta event in Fremont.

Is there any advantage to putting down a deposit for a Model S now? Tesla is sold out of its 2012 model year production and hope to ramp up to 20,000 cars in 2013. Right now the reservation numbers are upto 8000 which means anyone putting a deposit now will get one in 2013 anyway. I doubt...

Will there be a ventilated seats option on the Model S? I don't see one on the options page.

Not to harp on this anymore, but if you listen to Elon at the Beta event he says (at 30 seconds into the video) Beta Reveal: Performance (Pt. 2) on Vimeo that "the basic car will do 0-60 in 5.6 seconds). Obviously after testing it a bit more they realized it won't and now claim 6.5s. :( I was...

The multicoat pearl white might be the "Piano finish" that Elon kept mentioning during the Beta event.
