I must say that I'm learning a vast and important set of facts about car washing and detailing from this forum! It's something I've never paid much attention to, but that will change.

I generally like the center console layout, although it sounds too bulky for the car:
The PRND control is superior, IMO, to a stalk. I would, however, rotate it 180 degrees, so that it fits the human hand more naturally (like buttons on a computer mouse). I also like having the master window controller accessible to both front-seat occupants.
Hmmm...excellent point. I withdraw my suggestion.the problem with this center console layout is if you have a water, coffee or soda in the center console and it spills it has the chance of shorting out the gear selector/windows etc....I think Tesla was smart to seperate the cup holders on the Model S from essential controls.
Hmmm...excellent point. I withdraw my suggestion.
I concur. I think that the Roadster has similar recommendations. Can some one corroborate?The recommendations in owners manual seem pretty typical to me. They do recommend hand washing and good quality car wash soap. They do say that any paint damage caused by automatic car washes will not be covered by the vehicle warranty.
Not what you expect from a startup
Despite our gripes about the interior, the Fisker Karma is an incredibly impressive car. The build quality, the styling, and the technology amount to something you'd expect from a huge, established automaker, not a five-year-old startup. Still, Fisker's place in the market isn't guaranteed. The company will need money, sales volume, and its second, more affordable car to be mentioned in the same breath as BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Audi. That's a tall order in today's economy, but the fact that the company has come this far this quickly should have the rest of the American auto industry paying attention.
I also liked the quote "A new handling adage: complicate and add heaviness"
Perfect. Just giving the Karma issue some context. I say it is a non-issue and more like boiler-plate CYA manual stuff.ok, we already have a car wash thread: What's wrong with a car wash?
The magazine was testing the Karma because it was deemed a more mainstream vehicle, he said. It has not tested any cars made by Tesla Motors Inc.
I'm sure it has a larger user base than the Roadster, so certainly more mainstream in that sense.Mainstream? Huh?
