Default What is it?

I saw this motorcycle/car thing in my neighborhood the other day and have no idea what it was.

Here is what I know:

It was NOT a Can-Am Sypder

It had two front wheels and coming down the road it looked like a car with a swooping front end including a windshield...no doors...and the motor was in the back/underneath???the vehicle. It had only a single rear wheel with a motorcycle exhaust. It sounded just like a crotch rocket and you could even hear the clutch engage just like on a motorcyle. It had side by side seating, and sat very low. Basically it looked like a sports car, but half way thru the vehicle it became a motorcycle. The front was somewhat reminicent of a Lotus Exige....in fact it was almost the size of one.

All I know is it was extremely cool...a real attention getter...and it looked very fast, sounded very fast, and I'm sure is very fast and agile.

Let me know if you guys know what this is by my poor description.



p.s.- in case they only come in one or a few colors...this was a bright candy blue.
