I wonder what type of warranty you get. They are awesome cars. They had 2 on display at the St. Pete Grand Prix 2 years ago.

They had a yellow one at Funfest and it was awesome! I wanted it but I bought a t-shirt instead. It was in my price range.

The ultimate in badass. Jeno Leno is a lucky bastard for getting the very first one. However you could probably buy a used C5R or C6R for less, and give up a little of the creature comforts.
