It looks like a funky 911.

This version is obviously to prove a point. 150 MPG is amazing, but to get there they had to make some concessions, ie: two seater, narrow, ugly, etc. The concept is sound though, with a little more size and room, this would still be close to a 100mpg car. Compared to my 17mpg jeep, or a 12mpg suburban, that's a godsend.

I don't care how it looks as long as it can break 150mpg!!!!!
150...damn...that's crazy.

I want one in black, and tint the hell out of all the glass.

I think I would rather pick up a used Honda Insite. Sure the mileage sucks at 1/2 as good. However it actually has something that would resemble power.

Finally!

Drag is very important, good to see some people get it.

Now make it a 4 seater to save even more fuel by carrying more people in one car instead of needing 2 cars...

I'd drive that to work. Probably wouldn't use the freeway with it though. I'd be afraid of a high speed accident.
