A lot of people will buy this car and be really unhappy. They won't know what they're getting in to.

They're thinking they're buying a cool looking Prius and they're getting an Elise someone made quiet and ugly.

after you do naught-to-sixty in 4 seconds, I wonder how many miles it'll have left on the battery... maybe 60?

At least you would be able to blast everyone on the muscle car boards about how much tourque you can produce at really low revs!!

Or no revs, even.

Seriously though, if that thing were priced a little better, I think I'd seriously consider getting one.
