Another interesting tidbit from my Friday test drive.
At one point a car (I think it was the brown car) was sitting with the rear hatch open and when I looked inside, the top back of the rear seat looked like someone had sprayed the top band of light colored leather with a bleach agent.
It's a bit hard to describe, but across the top rear of the rear seats there is a band of leather (I think it's leather) that goes the entire width of the seats and is maybe 5 or 6 inches top to bottom.
In this car it was tan interior I think. Anyway, the entire band looked like either bleach had gotten on it and so it was really mottled looking, or else it had severely faded for some reason.
The effect was not even. As your eyes scanned the width of the band some of the material looked normal and then some looked completely faded or bleached out.
I took a picture of it (attached) because it was so obvious I thought you could easily see it.
However, for some reason it didn't show up at all in the pic.
I must say, I am jealous of someone who can own a roadster, a Karma, and a Model S! A tough life, but somebody has to do it!
So, enlighten us as to the comparison between the Karma and the Model S. Having driven an early version of the Karma about a year ago, I would assume that the Model S will be your go to car except when you need to drive more than 300 miles and don't want to have to look for chargers, but tell us yourself.
I had a deposit down on the Karma until EPA said that instead of 50 miles of electric range, I should expect 32, and that when driving on gasoline, I should expect to get 20 mpg! Fortunately, I discovered that Model S would be along in less than a year (still hoping!). Sig Performance 667.
Having already been called a troll and a Fisker fan boy on this site for daring to post comments critical of Tesla and positive of Fisker, I probably won't post any more of a comparison here but may do so over here after I have some extended time with the Model S.
Interesting. EPA's got a basically impossible problem of trying to summarize a complex system in a single number. As long as it's a standardized test, though, we can at least make reasonable comparisons between cars. So, e.g., the 85kWh Model S should be able to drive 8.3 times further on a charge than the Fisker (265/32).Just as a side note, I feel the EPA has over shot the adjustment on electric drive. A recent typical conditions 43 mile round trip in my Karma with full time AC usage in our rural/suburban setting ended with 3 miles of electric range remaining.
I think this counts as "white trash" porn for cars.Did you peak under those grey garbage cans hiding the chargers?

Do you mean the rear-facing kid's seats? What caused the discoloration?
....excessive bleach used to clean up after rapidly accelerated children....Yes. I don't think anyone at the event knew explicitly why (rubbing? material interaction? ...)
Here are my photos from the Gaithersburg (Washington DC) Get Amp'd event.
