It has significantly less power and range than originally spec'd. It's also way heavier. Buyers were promised one thing and delivered another (almost reminds me of the Jag XJ220 but at least that was a beautiful car).

The company I work for is right by MacArthur as well(on Von Karman). The amount of hot women I've seen driving Ferrari's in this area is mind boggling. Orange County is truly la la land for sure.

btw...I believe Fisker's are built in Orange County(Anaheim) as well so no surprise you saw one in that area.

It is that indeed...Mecca for new cars too...

Fisker is headquartered in Anaheim, but I think they are building them in Finland...
