A rich man’s bling bling car, so not to feel bad about the environment, all the while this car is not economically practical.

But hey, it does get the technology on the streets, makes for experience to get the bugs out and perhaps it could be cheaper years down the road.

Pretty car! I like one!

AnyIcon I don't know about this car but I do know that for quite a few people leasing a nissan leaf is cheaper than paying for fuel on longish daily commutes. Also they are fun to drive, a real nice ride. Go from a leaf to a normal car and the noise, vibrations and changes in acceleration really get on your nerves. Electric wont replace all gas cars but it is here to stay, get over it.
