really? where at? I just want one because they are a very badass electric car... not to mention that they can school most cars in a drag race and they are pretty damn quick around a corner too...

top speed isn't too impressive..other than that and the long time it takes to get a full charge, seems pretty badass.

yeah the charge time is weak... but I guess if you plug it in overnight your good (no road trips). also I wonder why it does not have a manual tranny, I would think that it would be more efficient for highway cruising since you can lower your gears... I'm sure that they know best since they did make the car, lol

plus i'm sure as the technology gets better, battery charge will last longer and not take as long to be charged. they also mentioned, in one of the videos, developing some solar charging technology. that would be very helpful.
