Absolutely astonishing. You are one very lucky driver. Thank God for the safety of this car. BTW, has anybody noticed that in all the crash pictures we have seen, the windshield never breaks?

Larry: I would think there wouldn't be a conflict between daytime/evening hotel visitors charging, and overnight hotel guests charging...

OK, I've had my white P85 with pano roof since last November, and now it's mid-August. I live in south Florida. I've noticed that the a/c sometimes has a bit of trouble keeping up with the heat through the pano roof; it starts off great, cools the car down, but after prolonged driving the car...

Fixed. Who knows...

So far no date or location. Just stopped at Dania and they have no information. I'll try to ping Fremont and see what I can learn.
