I just saw a recent episode of Top Gear showing this car, its pretty expensive and it only goes 0-60 in 6 sec, GTR FTW!!

it's an awesome car regardless of speed.

The company itself is having some "financial" issues, however the car encompasses a solar panel roof, and some bada$$ lines. Oh and it's a 4 door.

I've see these in person... badass cars. VERY long!

It reminds me of American cars back in the 50s when they were low, wide, and loooooooooonnnnnngggg.

Econ 02-23-2012 07:28 AM

yea, they're sweet.

There's actually one that's been sitting in a mall nearby me for a while now.

The design is gorgeous but I think it's damn near the size of a suburban.

I'd take one!

Yeah, pretty slow.

It weighs about 5000 lbs and doesn't get great gas mpg. Not sure the point of this car.

TerribleONE 02-23-2012 10:44 AM

50mpg isn't good?

Econ 02-23-2012 11:07 AM

I'd rather have this than the Porsche Panemara, however would take the Aston Martin Rapide over this.

so the Fisker’s motors run solely on battery power for only 30 to 45 miles, according to the manufacturer.
During our testing, we observed somewhat less—an electric range of 24 to 28 miles.

had to do four times during our 638-mile test, with gas-only mileage ranging from 20 to 28 mpg and an average of 24; hardly a victory for the planet

ive seen a couple on the roads...there is actually a fisker dealer in town about 10 mins from me...

Nismo89 02-24-2012 12:46 PM

i read the mpg on these was something like 17-27 excluding the battery power

think i read it on motortrend.com or something lol
