Obama handed over $200 MM of our money to Fisker. In return we get a $107 K POS car.

Yes you’re correct, but there was a promise of “green jobs” for Slow Joe’s state.....

Another Al Gore FAIL.

Well, it isn’t called ‘karma’ for nothing...................

No offense, but Consumer Reports is rag that praised everything Japanese without question.

Their opinion is crap in my book.

Regardless, electic cars are not ready for prime time.

Fisker should memorialize their benefactor and poorly rated car into the model name. Maybe something like the ‘Obama Spendalotta’?

The Fisker Karma... “Barrymobile”... or “WookieWagon”..

Isn’t this the car that stopped dead and had to be towed off of the Consumer Reports test track - not a good beginning.....

“it also highlights the risks to early adopters for leading-edge cars and technology”

If you had to flat-bed the test vehicle a few times I think you can call it ‘failing-edge’.

The Finnish Built Fisker...(I'll buy a SAUNA from the Finns, but autos, No thanks.)

Before Fisker, did FINLAND have an Auto industry??

[catnipman]

Oops, another extended-range golf cart found unfit to drive. Another half billion ObamaBucks flushed down the green Fisker crapper. What on earth are all those Fins going to do for jobs now that no one wants the Karmas they’re making in Finland for the Department of Energy? Oh, well. There’s always the success of their Department of Energy financed battery maker, A123! Oh, wait ...

For $107 K you culd build a Cobra Daytona Coupe w/a 302 base motor, a modern fuel injection system, a 6 speed trans, dial in how much HP you want & still get great gas mileage. (if you keep your foot off the floorboard)
And you could have a heck of a lot more fun.
