This type of color has been around a long time. Here's some photos I snapped while admiring a Porsche 356 (around 1960?) in a Palm Springs parking lot, back in December 2015. The first I'd ever seen. At first glance, it looked to have been a ground-up restoration. I looked it up at the time and...

These newer cars are "computer-focused" and most of the computers continue to run, when the vehicle is parked, thus draining the battery. Some vehicles, like my E550 Mercedes, have 2 batteries, which helps, since one is focused on powering other things and the "main battery" remains charged...
