i'd drive that. i can't imagine it will pass any safety testing, however.
also, where does the wife sit? does it come with a side car? commuting to work at 258/MPG, that would be nice.

while this thing goes way back, I think if VW is trotting it now for impromptu photo shoots, it's a smart move.

I might be way off base but just think what this could do for your CAFE standards averaged across the board.
