Not A Rod but very different

And I'd love one of these

 

[skull]

l would by one for that price just for a runaround town car.

There is just no way they can build those and sell them for $600.

 

[Old Iron]

Ya don't honestly think the big oil companies will let this make it to the general market, do ya?????
If they do, I'll buy one but, will probably pass away from old age before they get to me on the list of people wanting one.

Carbon fiber body alone would cost way more than $600 to produce. The engine alone also would be in excess of $600 by itself. Either it's a clever hoax, or some sort of publicity stunt by VW.

I love the name “The Highway Suppository” [cl

It needs to do at least 65 if I'm going to work in it. Otherwise I'll get run over.

 

[R Pope]

I call BS on the price, too. That windshield would be half the full price if it's sandwich glass.

It would probably never make it through the red tape to get on American soil. It would be awesome if we could buy cars like that for running errands but alas this is still the United States and we will continue to use a crew cab dually instead.

Over grown go-kart.....I'd buy one in a heartbeat.

Hey! I resemble that remark

Resemble or resent? [P

I wonder how we could hot rod it? the body looks like it would lend itself to land speed type racing

Resemble, unfortunately

1 cylinder diesel? Exhaust must sound weird.
Poof poof poof poof poof poof poof.

But the name Highway Suppository is fitting

Wife just said she would use it as an excuse to leave the kids with me being it only has one seat

 

[Willowbilly3]

I have a one cylinder Kubota diesel on a compressor but I haven't heard it run yet. Maybe I should use it on something with wheels.

The proto is CF, it doesn't say the production car will be. My guess is there is nothing more than a motor, brakes, and a steering wheel in the base $600 model. Basically a small motorcycle with a canopy and 4 wheels.


Won't ever make it to the USA because of safety regs. If it had 2 wheels and wasn't enclosed, then it would be OK.

Lol! Here is my daily transport! Yes it is a K3500...[cl

I just don't see how they could ever sell that car for $600. If they did they would clearly be selling at a loss, you will barely be able to buy the tires for that. I guess if you wear out the tires you buy a new car? I could see $3k to $5k and would be interested, but I just don't think $600 is possible while making money.

First thing I tought, no way for 600. the cheapest atv is way more than that.
