that multi-color light idea sound interesting, cool concept. 1110 pounds is crazy but plastic sounds unsafe. Cool car that I didn't know about though.

I like the front and the doors, but the back end is horrid. Looks like a station wagon, or a truck for hauling stray dogs in.

My, my, Stu, stop wanking your crank.

This is an RX-7, totally road worthy:
