A lot of interesting comments there. I would defend my purchase if I bought a Karma as well most likely but not sure when they feel the continue need to show they are better or they have a more 'real' car than the Model S. They are two very different cars. I would think the #1 reason to buy the Karma would be looks or maybe fuel savings all in one package. If you don't care about fuel savings then that largely takes away one of the main advantages of the Karma over an M5 or Audi A7.
Looks are one driver, flexibility is another (gas/electric). I now have two Karmas and love them both. I was also looking this weekend at an Aston Martin Rapide just for fun (and comparison) and its amazing how much better my Karmas are compared to that offering. Vs. the Rapide, the Karma looks better, has more presence, more room in the rear seats and has better interior styling IMO. The Rapide is about a second faster to 60 (0-60 in 5.0s vs. 6.1s) but it is also about double the MSRP (or triple the current market price). For the extra $120-150K, you do get a warranty which you don't have really with Fisker anymore and that's about it.
I will say that with the new MSP+ and the battery swap/supercharger expansion, Tesla's offering is becoming much more compelling than it was even just a few months ago.
Thanks. Good to get input from an actual owner. I've only ever sat in a Karma, never driven one. You have a Model S as well, right? Can't remember if you did. I love the styling of the Aston Martins but at twice the price that is a little much.
Most people cannot admit they were wrong. The comments are about as uninformed as they get. The Model S is nothing like a golf cart. Putting the looks aside(different folks have a different taste), the Karma is inferior in every single way. The market(including myself here) voted with their wallets, and we all know who won.A lot of interesting comments there.

I agree, the Karma is not that good looking of a car. I'm also sure that if the Karmas were flying off the carlots, the other problems would have been easy obstacles.While I agree with you about looks being subjective, I personally like the Fisker in profile but find the front grill hideously cartoonish, the failure had a number of causes, of which market demand was a minor one.

Nope - don't have an MS - had a deposit for awhile and have been on a few test drives, but decided not to pull trigger. Haven't driven MSP+ yet, but from what I've heard from Dennis and others, its an impressive car and handles as well as the Karma. Don't think the NYC store has an MSP+ yet to drive.
Next Roadster: Gold star? *A correction on that article. The Model S was not code-named Whitestar. Tesla followers called it that because we knew the Roadster codename was Darkstar.
And the Genlll was called Bluestar by us as well.
