If Chevy gets in on this action, I'll want one

That would be fun to drive

Cool idea, but it's only for the UK. And at $160,000, I'd rather buy an Ariel Atom for a 1/3 of the price.

I need something like that for autocrossing.

as cool as that would be.....could you even imagine driving one of those one one of our highways?? NO WAY IN HELL......you would get run over so fast it would make your head spin, for the simple reason you wouldn't be seen.

I could never understand this line of thinking. Motorbikes get along okay on the highway. Yeah, once in a while a few get take,but hey, so do semi trucks.

I say let us have them. I think they should make side by sides and golf carts legal for certain roads too.

FIRST OFF.....I ride....so I know what is like......BUT IF you stand a bike up next to a car or are along side of it, YOU CAN BE SEEN.....look at the height of the top of that little sucker.....it would be so easy to be NOT SEEN

I like the Ariel Atom, if only for the fact that no one would want to ride shotgun without a helmet on
