Figured that’s enough for a post. The fact that I saw it in the Pittsburgh area was even more of a sight.

The car looks interesting on the road. Overstyled, for sure, but if you’re looking for attention it surely works to your favor. Can’t say I like it though, but I’m more of a sharp-lines design guy.

Then I Googled to learn more about the car and I have to say, doesn’t seem worth the original $100k MSRP. Judging by the fact that there’s around 25 on eBay all going for $40-60K I guess I’m not alone.

Great gas mileage though, didn’t know it was rated at 55mpg.

I think they're gorgeous. Even better after Maximum Bob decided they needed LS9's in place of all that mumbo jumbo...

IIRC it also has a short EV range, ala volt in fancy clothes. Also has a great interior with recycled materials.

I’ve seen one in St Louis, but two inside the dealership. Never saw them again.

Saw another in Clearwater FL.

Still ugly.

What color was it? I see a light blue one in the Cranberry area fairly often.

It was grey on Route 28. I’ll actually be working in Cranberry come June 22nd. Small world.

Actually, it might have been light blue, I was wearing sunglasses. I’d be very surprised if there were two Fisker Karmas in the Burgh.

Gotta agree on the interior too. Looks nice.

You may have the benefit of seeing Cranberry’s resident Tesla then, too. It’s black with a vanity plate that says “AMPED.” Makes me cringe every time I see it.

I used to work in Cranberry full time but since I got promoted I’m usually only there once a week or so. My company has locations all over the region. Today I’m in Beaver Falls.

I actually see a good bit of Model S’ in the area already but I look forward to checking out AMPED. Heh.
