 Isn't his sports convertible already waiting there for him??

 Nope. According to a tracking website:
 Â   The car is 279,259,114 miles (449,424,119 km, 3.004Â
AU,    24.99 light minutes) from Mars, moving away from
the    planet at a speed of 13,008 mi/h (20,934 km/h,

Some people have waaaayy too much time on their hands .... but,
at least the Stereo has been playing good 'tunes' .... if it's
still working!!

 Forget the music, think of the shock some aliens are going to get
when they are exploring our solar system one day and they look
out of their window and see a Tesla car - with a mannequin in the
drivers seat - in orbit?
 They'll think Earth people are really technologically advanced to
achieve such a feat, and be very impressed...

 Yes, very impressed by the driver .... who could 'survive' in deep
space without any spacecraft casing to protect them!!
 Sort of 'Open Air' touring .... without the Air!!
 

or they'll think humanity is full of imbeciles for doing
something so stupid and go back home laughing at this planet of
idiots... telling their brethren there is no intelligent life in
this part of the Universe.

 Does David Bowie come to mind?
