Here it is Tesla Roadster #1. Price tag $98,000.
Actually for a sub 4 sec 0-60 car...the thing is a friggin steal. And it gets like 150mpg on a cost of gas to all electric basis VS. a 12 MPG Viper or Lambo.

Love that website, you have to see the steam powered car that he has. I can't believe how sophisticated that vehicle was considering the year it was built.
Leno, NBC and GM did a great job on that website, and I love Leno being microphoned as he is driving in a vehicle separate from the camera.
As for the Tesla Roadster, it is a dream machine, and if they ever put a range extender in it, or replace the batteries with some that are rapid recharge, you would have the ultimate unlimited range vehicle.

I kind of like the Fisker Karma!

It would be nice to be able to afford a car in this price range....

Fisker Karma is an absolutely beautiful vehicle - that is styling. These gem faceted cars rolling out of Cadillac aren't sexy at all, not like Fisker's work on for Aston Martin, BMW and his own Karma.
I hope to hear soon where he plans to build that vehicle.
