That fisker is pretty interesting.  It's the electric or hybrid sports car right?  I wish ford would come out with a well thought out hybrid 4x4 truck. I am tired of this shity gas mileage.

If I was a millionaire with money to blow, this would be the first super-car I bought.

I like it.  I'm not sure I like the air duct "doo hickey" near the side windows.  Other than that, it's a nice clean design.

...for a front engine car, it has too much duct work at the back.

It's nice, and everything.  But for the money, wouldn't you really rather have a Ferrari, or an Aston, or even a few Maseratis?

I wonder if they'll be the same way Nissan is about the GT-R.

The Fisker Karma?  Nice looking car.  Nice concept, but I'll pass.



Apparently the >$100,000  car will burst into flames while parked and not running.

 



And break down when brought in for testing.

Uh-oh.



ALL Fisker Karmas recalled due to fire risk traced to faulty fan.  Now ask me how glad I am that I passed on this car.
