Message	sure, they are kind of interesting looking and the interior is pretty cool (that massive center speedo is strangely awesome) but i think safety is a big issue. how well could they possibly stand up in a head-on with an suv? probably pretty sucky. and the supercharged version only puts out 165 HP. i dont know about anyone esle, but i think that sucks. and its too small. and i hate it. lol ---------------------------------------------------------- If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bullsh!t. ~Paul, AKA Zcrup92 1992 Nissan 300zx 2+2 *Sapphire Blue *Stock Feelin' the NA
