Spotted!

Off topic...but worth a post! Saw the rare, brand new electric sports car in Valmonte this weekend - the 2012 Fisker Karma made by California-based Fisker Automotive

The car has just started production and a few celebs like Ashton Kutcher, Leo DiCaprio, Colin Powell and Al Gore have already received theirs.  It's a "electric vehicle with extended range" meaning it can go 50 miles on electric battery power only, and has a gas engine to give it another 250 miles of range (the engine turns a generator to create electricity that powers the wheels).  The car is GORGEOUS and amazing up close. Want one? It'll cost you $120K and you'll have to wait a few months.
