Part of the appeal of this car is it's wonton disregard of safety and the inconvenient truth of greenhouse gasses slow-cooking us all. I am definitely pro-green choices in everyday life, but as much as smart is sexy, making this car smart definitely takes away the sexy.

Oh how I miss the sound of my 8cyl gas hog. But cars like this are sure fun to drive. If you guys are able to get it that'll be awesome. And if somehow you can turn it green and keep the power that would be cool too.

I wonder how hard it would be to convert it to a hybrid? Is that even posible? I know that there are probably some gearheads out there would probably want to shoot you for even suggesting such a thing. But what are you gonna do? Can't keep burning gas like they did in the 70's forever. That is one sexy ride. I wonder how hard it would be to convert it to a hybrid? Is that even posible?
