I have reservation for a One. Wish I didn’t. No idea if/when it will be delivered. They are making token deliveries to generate cash but seems they never committed to enough parts to build more than 300 and are now using supply chain/quality excuse because the need parts for 20,000 plus. I’m in for $5,250 non refundable and I canceled and Extreme Oder months ago. If it is delivered I will buy but not sure if I will keep it. I hate to use the term “fan boys” but the majority of those on the Fiskerati site will defend HF no matter how poorly he manages this company not taking into account he bankrupted the the last company he owned.
If ever delivered I think it will be a great car but right now I’m not holding my breath. To be sure I also own couple thousand shares of FSR and its tanking too.

I would only keep it if you are ok with the chance of your reservation money disappearing if they ever went bankrupt. I definitely think they and other EV startups like Rivian and Lucid have an uphill battle ahead of them in terms of scaling fast enough to compete and turn a profit.

I have a reservation. My wife was planning on getting one. The omission of the frunk is causing us to second guess (frunk makes up for smaller size of SUV).

I had a reservation early with Fisker. I cancelled when they tried to pull the non refundable BS last year. (I think they wanted $5000..non refundable).

I guess its not vaporware, but Fisker is really non responsive when it comes to details, specs, etc. Lots of red flags here and I don't feel comfortable. There are just so many better options out there for the money.

I posted my concerns on a fisker message board and was promptly banned. The Fisker cult is is even worse than Tesla..and I never thought I could say that...

I got my invite to order today. The Frunk omission may be the reason we don't pull the trigger.
