I think these hybreds Fisker is supposed to make are nothing but vaporware.

Back when we were backhauling Chevettes out of the plant there was a 57 Belair convertable sitting on the roof over the door to the main entrance. But that disappeared years ago, and IIRC nothing replaced it.
They supposedly made 40 cars there, the solstice molds are history, and the cars get a WHOPPING 20 MPG. really worth the 500 + BIllion eh?
