The Fisker Karma stopped right beside me at the red light. My mode of transportation, a $79 bicycle, his a $100,000+ electric hybrid automobile. Same red light, same wait. But then, in all honesty, when the light changed, I was looking at his rear end two blocks down the street before I had gone 100 yards.
So why do I mention this? Because I am envious? Not in the least; but because it is the first time I had seen an actual Finnish electric auto in our town. Pretty thing, I'll give them that.
Here is a picture and further info if you have not seen one.

That's a lot of money to spend on a car. Electric or not.
Designed for the man with more dollars than sense. (In my opinion)
That's never been my favorite auto body shape...I'll hold out for a 1939 Rolls Royce Silver Wraith...
Lin, way too much money to spend on a car, imo.
Chuck, just so.
Grace, my guess? You may be "holding out" for a very long time, indeed. (But my taste runs more to your choice as well.)
It can be had for less than that Karma darma thingy: http://classiccars.com/listings/find/1939/rolls-royce/silver-wraith
Grace, been shopping, eh? I read somewhere that some have sold for as little as 50-60K. Bet you can't get your Silver Wraith for that, though.
:-D
