That's Karma For Ya!
The 2009 Fisker-Karma Breaks Cover.
New information and images on the Fisker Karma, the premium plug-in hybrid sedan that will debut at the Detroit Motor Show and will go on sale in 2009. The production version has a design very close to the original concept.
Compared to the Karma Concept unveiled at the 2008 Detroit Motor Show, the production model has a slightly different upper grille and a larger lower air intake.
The exhaust tail pipe will be located just behind the front wheels. The Karma will adopt General Motors' 2.0 liter four cylinder turbocharged unit, combined with a 23 KW electric motor. The car structure is an aluminum space frame developed in partnership with Horsk Hydro and combined with a mix of aluminum and composite panels. According to Fisker, The Karma sedan - which has a base price of $87,900 - has already been sold out until mid-2010. The production version of the Karma will make its debut at the 2009 Detroit Motor Show.

I'm pretty sure this isn't allowed in the US, I don't care how clean the car is, but the website pictures at http://www.fiskerautomotive.com seem to indicate they solved this issue.
But yes, very pretty car.

The Karma is a great looking car. I'd bet it is a blast to drive!

It took me a while to chop these back together from their Explore Section on the web site. It had little Tabs to Click that I had to remove. But I think It Was Worth the Effort. Interesting fact I found on the website, The Karma is the Worlds Lowest Production 4 Door Sedan Ever Built. Also it has a Solar Panel Optional for the Roof Section that you can't see here but this is the one from the Concept.
