....They couldn't scrape up enough moolah to get actual proper 4 (holes?) piece-outlet exhausts? :indiff:

And those front and rear lights did not come from a Fisker Karms....Definitely not. :rolleyes: (Sarcasm.)

Still liked it though...

Edit: Karma, not Karms. Oooops. :embarrassed:

What is it, besides a rehashed Fisker Karma with poorer quality fit and finish? I can glimpse an intercooler through the front grille so I'm guessing they've reverted to a simpler power train

It's a reworked Fisker with a Chevy V8 in it. Bob Lutz's doing.
 
Was that a jab? That feels like a jab. :P

Not a jab, more of an observation. The interior design's far more basic, the exhaust pipes are wonky, the power source is far less advanced/exotic, and that's just based on what little I've heard and seen of it. I'm not insulting it, just pointing out that it's a bit lower quality than the Karma.
 
Ah, well the Karma's build quality leaves a lot to be desired to begin with, so to say something isn't up to its standards is saying quite a bit. :lol:
