I am soo going to have to make a trip to your castle when I come to CT this winter, seeing as my july trip was canceled.

the guys on the ecomodder forum are like.. buy it buy it!. If I can get it for less than $400 then, maybe I'll take the subs out of my trunk and bring it home and play with it. but the top speed is my limiting factor. I need to be able to do at least.... 50, to drive to work.

this citicar is an early car since it has the original trailer tires on it!

Good luck!! This guy says it will do somewhere around 30mph and will go 30-40 miles on a charge.
