Okay, maybe not really truly my dream car but wow! Wonder if others think it's as terrific?

Looks very interesting and roomy. my only concern is what will happen in a head on collision? Will the other car end up in your lap?
Like you Mara, that price will have to come WAY down.

That's a beauty !!! But along with my Zero emissions, I like a convertible that I can take to my beloved shore and go for a swim. So here's my car.

I saw that on the news this morning. It is rather interesting, but my question - how do you get the water back out of the car and dry it out?
no one

It would have to be at least ten times cheaper for me to even consider lmfao.gif I'd feel better about Fuel cells if "they" published some crash test info, as in how do the fell cells do in 55mph impacts. A hissing hydrogen leak in a car that may be having electrical shorts is not my idea of a safe place to be. What about heating and air conditioning ? All that glass means a very hot vehicle in the summer, Heating with electricity normally means heating some sort of element till it glows red hot (other than windows and seats smile.gif) I think I'd prefer a mostly electric using "nanotube" type batteries (not quite ready for prime time yet) recharged by a hydrogen powered home station (?), as they said it could power your house with out to many problems IIRC smile.gif Of course my real dream car would be a DeLorean powered by a "Mr. Fusion" hysterical.gif
