I asked him how he liked the Fisker, said that it was brand new but so far, he liked it.
Then I asked him what the electric range was. 50 freaking miles! Fifty whole miles before you have to plug it back in. For $110k or something....I could not believe it. Not trying to sound like Island911 here, (shudder)...but GMAFB. Why would someone spend their hard-earned $$ on one of those? Or even their $1k an hour stupid Hollywood job $$ on one? This guy looked like he waxed Miley Cyrus' beaver for a living...what a tosser.
But I'm not trying to judge him.  I just don't get it. Even in the land of buying a car to make a statement, this thing makes the DeLorean look like the most practical, well thought-out vehicle launch I've ever seen. Somebody help me here.  |
Denis, there may be hope for you yet!
