I'd rather chop my own legs off with a rusty spoon and crawl than drive that.
Probably because you've never driven one. It's as pure a concept as the S2000 just with a different purpose.

You would not get me to even sit in something that looks like that!
I don't care if it does 1000,000 miles to a gallon of fairy farts, it looks hideous (IMVHO of course )

I'd drive that over a Prius any day. I mind the first one I saw was in NYC. Something very cool about them. Reminds me of old concept cars in books I had as a kid.

To be fair though Lee, they do make very promising drag cars! They have a very low CO of drag, all you have to do is drop a better engine in them and there you go!
