The choice of the conscious wealthy.

You know what a Porsche says about you? It says you don’t care.
You know what a Mercedes says about you? It says you believe that if the world ran out of gazelles, it would be just fine.
What drives me to such draconian extrapolations? A piece of fascinating analysis performed by Edmunds.com.
It attempted to discover whether the Tesla Model S was popular beyond the chest-beating, organic sackcloth-wearing confines of Silicon Valley.
Stunningly, the numbers show that in 8 of the top 25 most expensive ZIP codes in the US, the Tesla was the No. 1 registered vehicle of 2013. And it was No. 1 in more of the top 25 than any other vehicle.
Yes, America’s wealthy are rallying round to save the Earth. Or, at least, to buy the same rather attractive car.
