Must be some heavy import fees, but they are going to start building them in Virginia soon.

Wow. Very cool. It's like a go-kart for grown ups. Can this thing possibly be street legal in the U.S.? And what happens in a rollover accident?
I don't think this is a car that you buy if you're really worried about safety. It's like buying a motorcycle, you know that if anything happens it will probably turn out badly for you but it's worth the risk.
Looks pretty safe from a turning perspective. I bet rollovers are really rare in that thing. But getting your head chopped off by a semi or hitting a speedbump and exploding are worrisome.
