Looks like they fired most of the employees and upper management are starting to sell off the company piece by piece. I don't know the whole story but it seems the Obama Administration just gave this company half a billion dollars???? $$$ well spent

haha, well I was fairly impressed with those cars, they had some great style, luxury but in this economy it's too difficult of a sell . It's just too much money for most. most people with that kind of money don't really care about gas mileage, LOL

Sad...

DesertCamaro · 04-06-2013, 04:05 PM

Yeah cool cars but you're right most couldn't afford it. Very innovative, until they caught fire haha. There's probably 30 of them for sale on eBay right now.

And Tesla will follow. More government fail.

Its sad. I wonder why they didn't focus on another segment. I'm sure they could have competed with the Prius. I believe all companies start small,but Fisker went all out.

Didn't that use the LNF?
