I'm not sure of the source of these bizarre posts, because neither member would elaborate further. But if indeed true, it would be a revelation. The question i have is: dealers ordering parts from who??

I grow weary of misleading information scattered through these forums,. Enough speculation...let's stick with facts only.

If Fisker were to file for BK and be extended interim financing from a potential acquirer (like Wanxiang did with A123), then they could resume limited operations.

I have no idea if that is happening or not, but it is a plausible scenario for dealers being able to order parts once again.

I have some calls in to Valmet to see if they have any parts on hand to hold and release under "custom" order requests directly from Karma owners or a dealer on behalf of an owner, if needed. They indicated they would check into it as they have never had such a request or a situation like this and do not have a specific mechanism in place to handle that. The person was not aware of any inventory or parts but hopefully we can get some info back this week. I assume I will not hear anything, at least until Fisker files BK officially.
