    Mike,
    It's too bad that you couldn't get a pic of the Spyder next to that little "thing"...

    Well the prices on those little suckers make me wonder if they're serilous or not...
    I think that they start out at about $108,000... and go up from there!

    why is it that every picture of them seem to look "fish eyed" or somehow distorted - the pics just don't seem right to me - maybe it is just me though....

    I think its closer to 140 if I read it right, 108 is for the base kit, then you have to add batteries etc to complete the unit. Just think how much gas you will save... for me it would be about about $1,400 a year so in just 100 years (assuming gas remains constant that long, lol) I will break even on the price!...

    Acceleration and top speed
    With over 1,000 ft-lbs of torque starting at zero rpm and a 600 kW (805 hp) motor controller, the Tango accelerates from 0-60 mph in under four seconds, finishes the standing 1/4 mile in about 12 seconds at over 100 mph, and can reach over 130 mph with no gear shifting
    If I had that kind of coin, I'd get one just to freak out the ricers, and musclecar guys around. Imagine getting beat by an electric toaster...
