Tx to OP for bringing this to my attn....just incredible, it's as if someone went into my brain and found out what makes my dream car and actually made it! Talk about taking the Lotus philosophy and going even crazier w it. I love small cars and this thing makes even the MX-5 look like a SUV haha.
Apparently one of their cars is already plated (but I'm sure they got some sort of exception) and they are already working on making it street-legal. However, being legal in the UK is much different from being legal in the US (see latest Exiges that never made it across the pond) due to the onerous safety regulations of the latter, for better or worse. In any event, I wonder if anyone would speculate how much these babies would cost if they eventually made it onto the streets? How the heck will they make enough ground clearance, add bumpers, fit airbags, etc? ~1,000hp would be way overkill for the roads, if they made a less powerful version w a lower price that would be awesome.
