I have an impossible time imagining that thing moving at highway speed. That would be laughed off the road up here.

I could build a 60+ mpg STI-performance vehicle for that. And with a nicer interior, I'm sure. Or they could have helped out some people who are on hard times. But why do that? You can't pick up cheap whores and impress parasitic friends with human decency! Without those stupid wheels to get the hos you'd otherwise have to... Wait, they're cheap whores - any display of money will attract their loose, plastic, herpes-spreading asses.

I don't. Going fast is as easy as not completely screwing up the engine, and then hitting the gas (even with 4000lbs of extra crap and exponentially increased rolling resistance and ludicrously taller gear ratios).

I'm worried about what happens you try to parallel-park the thing. My guess is that it's turning circle resembles that of a GreyHound bus.

I'm sure it CAN do 70, but I can't picture such an absurdity. It looks like a monstrously awkward, ridiculous toy.

How do you get 60 mpg out of an sti performance car? I'm intrigued.

Give up wussy gadgets, unnecessary space, and safety. The initial plan is: 1 (reinforced) Cessna 150/152 fuselage, 1 Plymouth Prowler/inboard 7 clone front suspension, EJ22 engine and manual transmission, Honda Goldwing rear end. I need to get a hold of a fuselage to see how much this changes.
