He will no longer be constrained by adopting existing models for conversion to his masterpieces.

That poc anyway looks like a cross between the vatnage, nex XK and BMW 5-series headlights......needs serious work. I doubt he’ll achieve those lofty heights.

He took the time to talk to me on the media days of LA Autoshow last year, even though the press was hawking for pictures and interviews and I was just a design student.

Also, they'll still have to buy an engine from someone and that can't be cheap.

As already stated the rebodied cars he created were outrageous. Their website is... different from most other websites too, not being a bad thing ( http://www.fiskercb.com/ their website). I just hopes he ventures into other designs, besides the jet nose inspired grill (it's most easily noticed difference). good idea if it is original.

Hopefully he will venture where he didn't and couldn't dare go before, and create something really unique.But best of luck! Kør med svinet, Henrik!
