Default Fisker Tramonto Coupe

So today driving home from work with the top down, enjoying the nice weather, I see in my passenger mirror a black highend sports car. As the light turns green, I let the car pass me to hear it's motor, and needless to say it sounded beautiful!

With V8 Kompressor on the side, I knew it had an nice AMG motor, but the headlight, taillights, and entire body for that matter, didn't look like a Benz! I check out the badges and see Tramonto on trunk with a symbol that read Fisker.

As soon as I get home, I'm dying to find out what it was! Here are some pics of the car I saw today.







So, have any of you heard of this car? Here is the site for more info: Fisker Coachbuild

What do you think of it? or

It's a good-looking ride. A bit hefty behind the doors, but it's nice and very rockable IMO.

Yeah I just read about them in Cigar Aficianado Mar/Apr 2007 a couple weeks ago. I believe they start with a Benz platform w/ the AMG motor and do a bit of overhaulin'

I like that they are bringing the art of coachbuilding back, but it is extremely expensive.

They've had this car in the Geneva car show for a few years now. It looks ok, I prefer the looks of the SL more.
