Using LS engine in Karma...good idea
I see the potential. The car is sexy for sure, just needed a good engine, and from a Corvette...why not!

On the outside, the Destino differs little from the Karma on which it's based--though the front facia takes on a more subtle appearance, losing Fisker's distinctive mustache grille. Arguably, it's all the more attractive without it.
Mustache grill? More like the Joker's grin.

FUGLY from any angle. Why waste a perfectly good LS engine in an Oscar Meyer Wiener mobile?

This car and platform have potential. Looks much better then any offering from the big three in their sedan class.

SRT 300, CTS Caddie are both better looking than a Fisker.

I'll give you the CTS, but not so much on the Chrysler. Most of the stuff produced by Oldsmobile is drab

Who said anything about Oldsmobile, they've been GONE for several years now. That SRT 300 is a smokin HOT sedan, Walter White endorsed too.

They did. Bob Lutz bought what was left and is dropping LS3s and LS9s into them, bolting on a new front fascia, and charging $250k.

Guess he's going to have a LOT of Fisker's laying around. What idiot would pay $250K for that thing, even with an LS9? Think I'll take 3-4 C7's for that kind of COIN.

I kind of like the looks of the car. Having an LS engine in it should ensure some good performance numbers.
