That looks like it'd be really fun to do doughnuts in.

Very cool, Nissan needs to put something nicer out than the leaf thats electric and this might be it.


Now i wonder what that price will be....

Actually it looks like a cross between an i8 (that first pic is all i8) and Nissan's Deltawing race car.

The cockpit is pretty sweet -- looks like a lot of fun. I'd drive that and make fighter jet sounds. A pillars look like they'd really be in your field of vision though, more so than a normal car.

It looks like someone ripped off the BMW i8 design but forgot to copy a wheel.

Still no specs. I have a feeling they're still too early in the design process to think about the little details like motor and battery pack.

LOL Little details.

You seem to be following this one closely. Are you thinking it could be a replacement for your Roadster?

Ha - not seriously, but at this point we know less about Roadster 3.0 than BladeGlider. Great to see some competition, even if it is just at the concept phase.
