Thanks for posting. Makes for a light Friday morning.
I've seen this car in a parking lot down the street and stopped to look at it. Now I know what it is. I wonder If the gas milage is better than a hybrid car?

With gas over $4.00 a gallon we all need to drive smaller cars until we get a better and renewable fuel source
