Do you think Fisker would have donated it for marketing purposes? Seems unlikely, given Two and a Half Men experience, but who knows.Fabulist said:They better have paid for that car.SoCalGuy said:Very cool! Great publicity for Fisker!

This reminds me of a Top Gear episode a few seasons back when the Aston Martin DB9 was taken out of the Sub-Zero freezer and put onto the UnCool board because "too many footballers were buying them making the car not cool anymore". I don't want my car or anything in my life being associated with The Bieb.SoCalGuy said:Really? Fisker's problem is that the only publicity it has received of late is negative. Here it is, on a nationally televised (and popular) talk show being featured as a "very hard to get" "environmentally friendly" sports car. That's a positive in my book.
Then you probably won't like to see the photo below, which captioned "Taylor Lautner test driving a Fisker"brian said:This reminds me of a Top Gear episode a few seasons back when the Aston Martin DB9 was taken out of the Sub-Zero freezer and put onto the UnCool board because "too many footballers were buying them making the car not cool anymore".

Judging by Ellen's sponsors and the the airing time of the show, the Fisker Karma is probably a highly aspirational item for that audience. I liked the car being described as being "a hard to get car". Overall, the free publicity is nice, even if it is cumulative to the other celebrities who already have one.LonePalmBJ said:I don't care if Fisker sold the car, gave it away or is paying Bieber to drive it, they are sure as hell getting more than $100,000 worth of airtime and mindshare. It was a brilliant PR move even if I personally couldn't care less about the Biebs.
Oh Joy. More fingerprints on my windows. Although, at the moment anyway, unless said girls are mobbing the service bay of my dealer, there is little chance of that happening to my car.magnus said:Eclipse owners, look forward to getting mobbed by pre-teen girls everywhere you go... haha
What was the Two and a Half Men experience?SoCalGuy said:Do you think Fisker would have donated it for marketing purposes? Seems unlikely, given Two and a Half Men experience, but who knows.
Well, for one thing Ashton liked it. He's also driving it privately.doug said:What was the Two and a Half Men experience?SoCalGuy said:Do you think Fisker would have donated it for marketing purposes? Seems unlikely, given Two and a Half Men experience, but who knows.
So why did SoCalGuy say "seems unlikly" implying that the experience was not a positive one.Dutch said:Well, for one thing Ashton liked it.

I had several people ask me if my car was the same as the one in Two and a Half Men, so people are noticing it.
Fisker did not pay or donate the car to the show, but allowed them use of the vehicle for filming. Russel D. said "no money changed hands" etc.doug said:What was the Two and a Half Men experience?SoCalGuy said:Do you think Fisker would have donated it for marketing purposes?
