The Best American Cars and Motorcycles You've Never Heard Of |
|

If you think a $130,000 Mercedes SL55 AMG just isn't flashy enough, try a Tramonto. It's the first car from Fisker Coachbuild, which was co-founded in 2005 by Henrik Fisker, the former head of design at Aston Martin. Fisker, based in Irvine, Calif., begins with a stock Benz, strips it down, and then rebuilds it on a small production line in Italy. The cars are made to order with options such as 13 shades of hand-stitched Italian leather upholstery and three engine sizes, the largest being a 604-horsepower V-12 twin turbo. So far, Fisker has sold 75 of a planned run of 150 Tramontos. |
