Success of any kind is a wonderful thing. It makes you singing and drinking, it makes you optimistic. The world is adoring you, and it's waiting for your next glamourous and wise step. What is worse part of a story, you barely do one. In most cases the first, success founding achievement is never repeated. We all know this from tabloids - you can number hundreds of one-album artist, one-role actors, begging for one more second of fame - and never getting it. The world of motoring is not very different - the one-car designers can also be found. After reaching their top career point, they desperately try to move further - but can't. Since, there's one impossible thing in a world - and it's pulling yourself up by grabbing your own hair. In a car world, it means that making one great car does not make you a great engineer or designer forever. It makes you such for about a year. After that, you get museal. The Man, Who Made Something 100 Years Ago But Nobody Cares About It Now, Really - do you get a point? It seems that Henrik Fisker, a car designer, is heading precisely for it. What gave him a name was an Aston Martin DB9 - an icon of automotive design, undoubtedly, one of the most beautiful cars on the roads. DB9 is really something, and its helped Aston a lot. There's no happy end, though, cause Fisker hasn't made anything sensible since DB9 design. When the enormous success came down on him, he reacted like mots of us would do. His ego grew to size of medium planet, and he believed that he's making a great cars. Few minutes after that, he started his own company, made himself an abstract logo - and designed one car after another. As you can presume, it didn't work well. The two new sportcars were tuned BMW and Mercedes; suprisingly, they looked like very badly tuned BMW and Mercedes cars, roughly disuised as the Astons. The had its publicity, but come on - they were a disaster. However, thank to tasteless people's money and Fisker's still growing ego even more terryfing car arrived. Fisker Cars made a limousine. Of course, it's a sporty one' of course, it's luxurious. There's no question if oil-traders will buy it. They'd buy anything, just to spend some time. This doesn't change the clou of the problem. The new Fisker Karma limousine looks like its designer got an Alzheimer - it's childish, it's even worse than previous cars, it's worse than most of 3D drawings made by the overemotional teenagers without girlfriends. After seeing thousands of such a pictures on internet forums, you just can't understand, that someone is going to produce it. How is it possible, that man who designed mighty Aston made something like this? Where are all his skills, the sens of harmony and style? You suppose a man like him loves desiging cars, enjoys every part of process and is making arty sketches even in the toilet. Well - his Karma model proves something completely different.
