Lots of black seats with red inserts...


That "Please do not touch" sign on VIN F003 doesn't appear to be working!

Yes, seems like a popular choice, regardless of exterior color. I'm betting Martin went with the microfiber, though.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. It's a funny contrast with the kids climbing all over the car. However, the sign is likely just referring to the charging port.

More P2 / VIN F003

Clearer interior view:


What is that CF plate above? Something to signify which Founders' Series number it is?
Which official interior color is that. Looks like it might be "orange."




Supplying rides for party goers.
