Might be "interesting" when the motor gets warmed up.......being that it's completely exposed and sitting right between your legs.
Note to self: Do not wear shorts while driving.

One of these would be pretty cool on the Woodward Dream Cruise.

I would take it a step further and ask how they are street legal in California.
I would take one over a smart any day of the week.

the badassness of these cars will haunt my dreams forever
my guess is the streetlegalness is that the engines are Crab legal, they have mirrors, lights, and proper braking devices. I dont see any restraint systems, but that may not be crucial for legality. I would definitely hazard a guess that theres a bit of "hot rod claus" useage going on in their legality. Id love to autox one...how great. given their suspension and height, i bet you could offroad one easy too!
