Pingu, you may or may not know but Fisker used to work with BMW - he designed the Z8. More impressively, he also worked on the Aston Martin DB9 and V8 Vantage. Fisker is top drawer - he's just set up his own custom coachbuilding studio, some of his other projects are much better than the M6 based Latigo.

Does he know how to design anything that doesn't look exactly the same?

Gotta say, the tail of the Latigo is WAAAY nicer than standard issue M6...

Something to pick up in the next global car price slump, perhaps!

I saw that car in person at Dinan's Facility back in August. They are doing all of the engine mods for Fisker's Latigo.
Very nice car, inside and out. But for $200k I would look at other options.

I, too, saw the Fisker 6 in the Dinan showroom last summer in Morgan Hill. It is truly one astonishing motorcar to behold.
