    "In addition to making roadsters that no one will buy" you mean? This company to me is nothing more than a POC. Electric only is something for a few people that want to look like they give a crap out in Cali. If it isn't hybrid it's a waste of time and money.

    The only way I would own one is if it came with free towing, because I'm sure you'll need it.

    @Palmer74: In 1972 a crack battery unit was sent to storage by an electronics court for a charge they didn't commit. These batteries promptly escaped from a maximum security warehouse to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by Wal-Mart, they survive as powerers of gadgets. If you have a Game Boy - if no one else can plug it in - and if you can find them - maybe you can use: The AA-Team.

    ...I apologize for flagrant use of the italics and bold tags. It...it just felt right.

    I don't know how, but you managed to squish more information into 1/5 the space of CNN's entire article. Good show!

    @UnderLoK: Check again man, they staged those "break downs" for effect.
    Bottom line is they hate it because it's American -- a common theme in their reviews of domestic (domestic for me, anyways) cars.

    @rcast1986: Didn't they name a Ford as the "car of the year"? Or was that just a joke I missed because I don't watch the show that often?
    But yeah, the fictional break downs were pretty low. They're in a position to do real damage (not unlike what happened with Audi). It was good to see they "came clean" as quickly as they did. Though apparently not everyone got the memo.

    @UnderLoK: [www.wired.com]
    Although Jeremy Clarkson has a strong bias against American cars there are time where he truly enjoys riding in one and gives an honest review. Like the Corvette Z06, or the Tesla. Even though he often complains about the steering wheel being on the "wrong side".
