Looks like a Spyder you could ride in the rain and not get wet.


I've seen alot of people that thought they were cool , but then again Lord I've seen alot of fools.

Mine will be # 1437 off the line,  WHEN they get produced. The Phase four has been updated with a totally different set of fenders (totally enclose the wheel, ala 1930's), headlights now in the body, and a squared off back end with a small trunk lid.

There's different phases?  Why are they doing design changes when they haven't even sold one yet?
I can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to

They are doing all they can to get the mpg up to the 84mpg target and 107 top speed. Phase 3 would only get up to 81 mpg. There are a lot of naysayers out there, but hell, I've spent more money on chrome, etc.. I absolutely like the concept, and if putting down a grand will help get them on the street, then I'm all for it.

Fox had a segment on it this morning, see link to video.  I'v been watching this closley for a couple of years, 84MPG, $6800, looks like a winner to me.  It even sounds pretty good, not as cheese-dicky as I expected.
