I believe the Federal Tax credit is to the original purchaser only. Assuming that with 1500 miles, and early VIN it was previously registered.
I will defer mechanical info to the forum experts.

Hi FiskerLover,All: I am checking out listings for a Fisker
Best people to get the skinny on the Karma's by Vin is fiskerphilly, harlyguy and alexpop. There is a lot of stuff on this site you can look up by searching the site. I bought mine new on the waitlist. Unit 997, had all the service done on it and with a little over 5K miles, mine has been great so far, but i drive mine as a Sunday or good weather kind of car. Filled it up three times and still have a 1/3 of a tank. I pamper my car and enjoy the drive every time I get in it. There are plenty of members here who drive it daily and I met one owner who had over 75K miles and still going strong -- Fiskerphilly services his car. My recommendation, make sure all the factories campaigns where done. Make sure the muffler is the lastest with the welds. Make sure to check that it has the green dot on the Electric Motors or had the RDM/Traction done. and most of all, get it with the tri-tone leather -- at these prices, its a good deal. Oh two more things, if it does not have it, get the clear bra and rear wheel wells done and make sure you get a battery tender and 240 charger for it - you won't regret it. Hope this helpsI am interested in buying a Fisker as a daily driver. I commute about 20 miles a day to and from work and do a limited amount of local driving on the weekends. Once in a while I will take one day local trips.
Can anyone and everyone who owns a Fisker give me the straight story on what kind of reliability I can expect? Please be specific about your experiences. I plan to buy a used one with less than 10K miles. I am also about 190 miles from one of the new Fisker dealers if I need service. Any info on service and maintenance would help too.
I am completely new to the brand, but I love the look of the car and I want to buy one in the next six months.
Thanks in advance for any info or stories that can help me.
Good luck and once you buy, make sure to register with http://www.thenewfisker.com/ -- when you get it, make sure you post the pictures ;-)Thanks for the feedback Nin_ja, all good stuff. I assume a VIN check will reveal if the factory campaigns were done. I will probably need to travel a good distance to purchase my Fisker so I want to do all my homework upfront. I will reach out to fiskerphilly and the others.
IF it is still on MSO (never titled/registered) it should still be eligible because it is technically still a new car regardless of miles.
?? Let's see - if the car is NOT on MSO any longer because someone titled it to become an owner, how can anyone reasonably think it's new regardless of miles :huh: - IF the car was put in service the warranty clock started on that date and it is no longer new and that's the bottom line. There is NO "Right" by any buyer to wish away facts with bogus assumptions. Just because a dealer sells a low mileage car it does not make it new...hence the term "like new".... A buyer has the right to assume a new car with very low mileage, bought from an authorized dealer, is, in fact, a new car. The transfer papers will have the new car dealer's name as further proof. I believe it is fair and proper for the buyer to submit a claim on income taxes...
