Slightly slower than a Radical in a test 5th gear did. But only by less than a second. And it's by far one of the best looking such cars I've seen. Not to mention it's powered by Honda!

Speaking of small, light, fast cars... I sat in an Elise this past weekend. It was the first time I've been able to examine one in person. In the past I've been mostly dismissize of those little cars, based on fragility reports from ElistTalk, dealership behavior and my mistrust of the Toyota powerplant. But just sitting in the thing was a very nice experience. I found it suited me very well. I can also now understand why people have such a problem getting in and out of it. There's maybe two inches between the driver and passanger seats, but there's an eight or ten inch door-sill you have to navigate over.

And the Chrome Orange color pops. Looks awesome.
