Beautiful Design. Absolutely Beautiful. It's so hard for a company to design such a car that is so original and doesn't take lots of characteristics of pre-existing cars.

Perhaps the most important car of the decade. Fisker has produced the most exciting car one could hope for, as well as made a serious promise to preseve our fragile earth. Let's hope other manufactureres will follow suit.

It's really really beautiful and all, but I don't actually get to LOVE it, you know... don't know exactly why. Maybe it lacks some brand identity, for being so 'new' and all... or maybe it's just me, since I tend to associate luxury with some good old-money heritage.

Spot on! I agree it would be easier to love with some reference points to the past to add the sort of pride you feel from a marque re-inventing itself.

Its sexy if seen from the side or the back, but the mustache front grill is horrible.

Rear is indeed, quite original, but the front is very Aston Matinish, designer showing his roots. In fact look closely, the only difference between an AM grille and Karma grille is the separation of the mustaches. BUT overall, at just $87K, it is the most eco super car and green too.

simply beautiful. I like the design but why the top speed is 125 mph ..? it should be faster.

If it was faster. It'd cost more, and I don't know many people who would invest that much money in a vehicle from such a new brand.

keeping the price down is a very smart move on behalf of fisker. also, unless you live in germany/italy, 125 mph (roughly 200kmph) is definitely fast enough, especially when the max speed limit is 130kmph

It looks good. And I respect the design more than that of the AM Rapide. Not that the Rapide doesn't look nice, it definitely does. But it doesn't bring anything new, it's just a DB9 with a piece added in the middle to punt it bluntly.

its beautiful, fast (acceleration is a far more useful measure of speed than top speed really) high-tech and eco friendly.... perfect
