It's a Tango, from http://www.commutercars.com/

With over 1,000 ft-lbs. of torque, the Tango can accelerate from zero to over 130 mph in one gear. Without an energy-robbing transmission or differential, it accelerates from zero to 60 mph in about 4 seconds and finishes the standing 1/4 mile in about 12 seconds at over 100 mph.

Or were you talking about the Subaru?

I think the whole back hatch opens up so a wheelchair driver can get in -n-out easy.

You guys are funny.

So, it's electric and is over 3,000lbs. Neat.

$108,000 is just for the kit. You still need batteries and such. The pricing sheet says "All of the components to complete a basic T600 can be purchased for $121,000.". Crazy.

looks interesting, just pray you never get into an accident with it, thats lookin to be all bad.

I also think 108g's for just the car alone is overkill, but thats just my opinion.

^^Agreed. I guess the selling point is you can legally split lanes in it, but there are alooot of nice motorcycles I can buy for $121,000.
