Interesting new wheels...

Well a whole car actually. The Germans are going to produce the LOREMO

Loremo = low resistance mobile, 2CYL turbo diesel with 130-150 MPG

Only drawback is the way it opens. Either really wet seats in the rain of a butt load of snow removal to open the door.

I saw a car on the Discover channel last week that looks like one of the closed cockpit race cars that got 130mpg while doing 140mph! :shock: I would definately pinch my pennies to get one of those if they ever built em.

They're being built in Germany now. The US maybe soon . . .

the article state's it's not a drag racer, but for 130-150 MPG and the American version doing 0-60 in 15 sec ain't that bad. :?

Hehehehe . . . Only by some guy driving a 69' AMX, with a 390 and 4 speed that can go twice as fast in a merge lane :shock: :? :t: :!: :mrgreen:

The funny thing about that is I actually do (sometimes) like to flex my :naka: and show people how to merge on to the freeway
