haha that thing is so light...the wear and tear doing a burnout or donut in that is less than a regular car. I cant imagine it taking much to spin the tires..

That would be friggin sick with and LS motor. Someone needs to get it and do just that!!! It would sound better and scoot much better. Only problem is Im 6'4 so I can probably never ever drive it Ide also hate to be in the left lane next to a semi...I imagine that car would be pretty hard to see...and pretty easy to run over!

um... 0-60 in 2.5 seconds? I'd bet the cops can't even keep him in sight, much less catch up w/ him to pull him over. And it would be worse with a real small block like a LS7. That's sick... I want one.

Heh... I know a guy that's talking $#!7 about how fast his car is...

Wow that is ludicrous. funny, it never sounds like he is even getting on it. Driving that on the street would take a lot of self control. Sold for pretty cheap it seems.
