As I was complaining a few days ago about Tesla, I got thinking about which small car company could one-up them and make a car more like what I had in mind.  My favorite candidate was Fisker, though I figured they'd continue to base their creations on modified Mercedes and BMWs for a long time to come.  However, it turns out that they are indeed building what could loosely be called a competitor, though it's a hybrid and not a 100% electric car.  It's called the Karma and, as Autoblog reports, it will be available in 2009.  With proper dimensions and significantly more style, this is the first "green" sports car I would actually like to be seen in.  As a bonus, Henrik Fisker also penned the Aston Martin DB9; the most beautiful car of all time.
