That thing isn't street legal. If the real car ever exists it will change a lot.
Side mirrors are unusable, but are required by law.
No door handles? (Not required by law but generally needed for usability reasons).
Turn signals not visible from the side?
The "post-homologation" car will look quite different, if it makes it that far.

I drove the Karma once. Great car for a tall driver. Really comfortable ride.
Nonsense drivetrain, though. Once on the highway I just floored it when at 120kph. Nothing happened. After a while, some more buzz from the V8 and after than a gentle acceleration started to manifest. But what a looker that car.
If they become really cheap with worn drivetrains, it would be good to buy one and have it be converted using a Tesla (level) battery. Should be some space for it. Especially with 2170's. But a used Karma and a Model 3, then void the heck out of the latter's warranty?
Heck, stick the V8 from the Fisker in there with an off the shelf gearbox. CVT if you have sense of humor.
Off topic, out

why do so many have the urge to make this into a competition? the more options available to consumers the better!
if there were to be 20 competitors for tesla that means that there are more choices for the masses and maybe there would be less ICE vehicles sold.
bring on the "tesla killers" !

I wish that Fisker and Musk were still working together today... I mean, the Dane is responsible for arguably two of the most beautiful sports cars ever built: the Artega and the Aston Vantage V8.
