0-130 in 30 SEC... what a let down... considering my Z did 0-130 in 12 secs
:ninja3: also it won't quilify for the 7500 tax credit because of battery power rated under 16kw

Nice! It has potential. They'll push it to market, I bet.

I've noticed from driving the Leaf, that it has great torque down low, but once you get up in speed, they fall of greatly.

Lexus performance cars have always been a disappointment, as far as the numbers go. Just look at the LFA.

it may go against the NSX

mid-engine, rear drive...definitely will go head-to-head with the new NSX. Design configuration reminds me (a lot) of the NSX too. Anxious to see what happens over the next couple of years.

:icon18:

I like it.

Is this even going into production or will it just stay a concept?
