I seen that thing on the Discovery channel...

Looks pretty good...and it was quick down the road...they also had a guy who could convert any car to total electric...he did a 78 MG B and a 80-something Nissan Pulsar...and both would actually catch a wheel...they were limited to like 300 miles but then so are V6's with a tank of gas when you think of it...

Its really not that hard to do an electric car conversion. However, the big downside to electric cars is still the range, because even if you can make it 300 miles, you have to recharge, not refuel. That means you need a lot more time.

yeah but think about that...how often do you drive 300+ miles one way...as a city or local car it owuld be great...you can even go 150 miles out and then come home...

when it came time for a vacation most people either fly or rent...hell when I go on vacation in feb I am still renting a car...

We drive every where my stepdad hates to fly.. Therefore I have never flown before and am scared to death to do it lol.

Edit: To go along with what Admintom said I personally would rather have the Maserati GranSport because I love the tail lights on them. The Tail lights remind me a lot of the 94-95 Accord tail lights.

Honda NSX-R

Proven to be one of the best handling cars in production. Take the rest of the money left over from 100k and build the motor, and youre all set.
