One of the many debacles of Malcolm Bricklin. They were such a failure legend has it that a bunch of them were sold to a go-kart track in California for use as, well, go-karts. They failed there as well because they would roll over too easily.

Back then they were headquartered in Pennsauken NJ and you could get a franchise for very little dollars. I was tempted, but the cars were so bad!
