bit of a goofy concept car, but I am left wondering how does a car like this handle in a spirited driving situation?

I think it boils down to whether it's father was a motorcycle or a scooter.

I like it, other than the TOTAL lack of rearward visibility. I'd use it for my ~8 mile commute if given one, not sure how much I'd pay for one with if it was my own money, though.

I don't like tilting while driving...makes me seasick.

seems to tilt a LOT at low speeds.. looks like more of a "look at me" thing.

Didn't mercadies or VW have a three wheeler concept where the front wheels tilted as the car turned?

wonder how it knows how much to lean... friend of mine has that scooter with the sissoring 2 front wheels... said it handled nicely... reported to have a lot more grip then a standard scooter to boot...

appears this uses that concept... even has round profile tires like a motorcycle... looks like could be fun

You get used to it, though I usually tilt towards the outside of the curve. The passengers never seem to comfortable with it though.
