A friend of mine bought a car that I've never heard of. Anyone else ever heard of a Fisker Karma? Im on a phone so I have limited posting capabilities. Basically its like a Volt. It gets almost 60 mpg and does 0-60 under 6 seconds. Just curious is others have ever seen one? Thoughts? Tired of the Trayvon story.

I tend to get these confused, but I'm certain someone will clarify — Fisker and Tesla are making high end EVs ($160,00+ class). One of them (Fisker or Tesla) was at Consumer Reports for EV testing and died early in the tests.

The EV was so dead that it required a trip to the factory and $40,000 in repairs to fix before returning to Consumer Reports to finish testing. Word has it that the CR testers are so spooked by the car's unreliability the will not drive the car outside cell phone range in case it dies again!
