Cool looking, but how much $$? I looked around a little on their site for a MSRP, but didn't see anything.

I understand that they're expecting to price it at around the $18K - $22K range when they're available late next year.

More pointless but cool toys:

50cc scooter (Skooter?) powered:

V8 powered, requires an Odot tree for parking:

See it run here. This site is heavily laden with ads, do not stray from this link, you've been warned!

The video says 22.5K pounds. What is that $40K dollars?

For the UK-produced Carver, that is indeed correct but that's not what they're going to be selling the US-built VentureOne for - or so I've heard. (Incidentally, Venture has only licensed the technology from Carver; it's not really an evolution of the machine per se.) I hope(..?) they're smart enough to realize that they won't sell but a small handful of these vehicles if they set a price-point above $25K. I hope they're able to achieve production numbers that will enable them to keep the street price reasonably low.
