What country makes these things?

[agere_contra]

First time in history that steel has been melted by water.

[doorgunner69]

Does not bode well for any fool that buys one and drives through a decent rain puddle..........

[bmwcyle]

Unsafe at no speed.

[ryan71]

Salt water + Battery terminals = Shorted Batteries = Fire

Dogma’s revenge on the Karma...

The new Fisker “Shock and Awe”

[txrefugee]

Yikes, don’t try driving through high water in these babies. That’s a $100 K barbeque pit.

[illiac]

A friend told me they were really hot cars....

[Milton Miteybad]

It’s possible the salt water caused a short that led to a fire.

Ya think? ;-)

[6ppc]

Kind of re-defines the word Meltdown!

[bray]

Is this the car algore is invested in and millions of stimulus money went to?

Pray for America

[SWAMPSNIPER]

Better not drive one in the rain!

[Wyatt's Torch]

[ZirconEncrustedTweezers]

[DoughtyOne]

I know I posted this joke on the other thread but those crispified hulks in the middle of the non-electric cars just makes it more apropos.

Guy with a deep tan is sitting at club house bar with a pale obvious new comer.

Tanned guy, "I came from NYC after my dress factory went up in flames one night. Darn good thing I had insurance, because I couldn't move those rags for love or money."

Pale guy, "Well, my sad tale is similar. The exclusive Fiskar Karma dealership I had was in deep trouble. Just no market for $100k plus electric cars. And then that storm Sandy flooded the 16 that just came in. Water flooded the batteries, they caught fire and blew up. Damned good thing I had insurance. So I took the $2 mil and came down here."

Tanned guy after a pause quietly asks, "How the heck do you start a hurricane?"
