Rapide Competitior - Hybrid

What do the Rapide Fans think of the new Fisker Karma?

Gotta say it is pretty striking in many respects, but Fisker seems stuck in his design language. - Z8- DB9 et al.







Cheers,

The grille and the smaller diamond intakes are the only things turning me off at the moment...

Agreed. The hips and the side profile look great.

In person, the car looks absolutely amazing. The damn thing's lower than a 911! Very sleek.
Fisker plans to make 15,000/year of these. At 100k each. Kind of funny.

That's quite a few bucks cheaper than their other offering, is it not?

Despite its few quirks in appearance, I like it hands down over the Panamerica pics that I have seen. If that production number is accurate, I think Porsche might need to revisit the drawing board.

4 door 350z from the top view. The grill is horrible, but other than that, I like it.
