If this is conspiracy they are setting themselves up for mega shame and will never bother the world again.
I think they were smart and hid it untill now,I know I would not have told the world untill it was ready to drive.

Its been at SEMA,probably hid in the back from the crowd,two guys garage,countless other publications and is going to compete in the worlds most effecient production car contest,after all the aftermarkett has surpased this already and is not allowed to compete in the competition.

The investment oppertunity is on the fuel vapor pixie dust technology,not the actuall car itself.Its set to do a limited run untill 2012 ,then supposedly goes into full production,unless something happens between now and then.
Only problem I see is thats its a one seater, and has not been approved in the us.
They are using almost all production parts for other cars,so reliability in that area is covered.Right now weight ,areodynamics and engine size is whats giving it the fuel effeciency,not the pixie dust.
They have driven the snot out of it and everyones happy soo far,1.7 gs in the corner on stock street tires sounds good to me,12.9 in the 1/4 even.I am sure once one begins to romp it hard the gas mileage goes wayyyyyyy down from the 70 mpg,probably more like 20 mpg unless on flat ground at 55 mph with pixie dust injected to get the 92mpg.

I did a little research on the tax we (here in Michigan) pay per gallon based on the current average of $.3.69 per gallon.

State Sales Tax = $ .21
State Fuel Tax = $ .352
State Environmental Regulation Fee = $ .875
So, it is safe to say that for each gallon of gas, we are actually funding the State $1.437 in taxes - that is 39% of our gas prices!
