"The government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it." - Ronald Reagan

Behold the Tango, a brand of electric cars by Commuter Cars Corporation. There are three models, and only the top-of-the-line $85k model is available... as a kit. However, zero to sixty in 4 seconds, a 12 second quarter mile and 150mph top speed may get your mechanical juices (and your large checkbook) going. It apparently can be recharged to 80% capacity within 10 minutes (provided you have a 400 amp outlet handy) and has a range of 80 miles.

It's tiny and looks like it could be a soccer ball on a freeway full of SUVs.
