What I found ironic was that we were referred to as "forum fan-boys" for the last bit of news on the whitestar, but Tesla considers this forum as "hostile"  .

Even with its carbon-fiber front end shattered, the car was something to behold.

I think this picture was probably taken before the accident, though of course we hope it's after repairs (which would mean it is pretty much fixed).
Either way, hopefully Martin gets his car soon.

UPDATE: According to Tesla, this photo was taken pre-crash. The car is still being re-assembled and should be ready next week. As long as there no more surprises.

I like the stripes. I am pondering how one would look in white with Electric Blue racing stripes.

A red (orange?!) letter day.

Tony, I was surprised how good the orange looks in person.
Assuming you are OK with a "loud" (not audibly) car, it seems like orange would be a good choice.

Mocked up example of what his Roadster might look like in front of some Solar Panels in Palo Alto:

Damn, for the first half a second I already thought: At last!
Someone somewhere mentioned it could happen this week.

More thread drift: The part is on the wrong side of his head, and he has a UK/Japan spec car.

Martin = Martian?
This shows a conspiracy of intergalactic proportions.
The real Martin would never park on the wrong side of the road.
If he did, he would not allow the corner of his car to cross the double yellow line. Real humans care about Electric Cars.
The figure shown here is clearly Right handed and Martin is Left handed. What other proof do you need?
Why is it's left hand hidden? Is the appendage a claw or are there salt suckers on the "fingers"? People want to know!
The being here has a slightly misshaded eye color leaning towards a deep green black. Based on what we have learned at Roswell, we know what that means!
Due to the different gravitational forces it can be seen that this creature is holding onto the car as not to float up.
It's clear by the photo that the music on the radio is heavy metal. Humanoid shaped aliens love that stuff.
And what's with that hair?!!
