Imagine what they were saying back when Karl Benz putted along in his three wheeler... "that horseless cariage is just a novelty... it'll never catch on..."
I for one am impressed. 170mpg and 11.1 sec 1/4 mi! Oh Yea!

Yea, saw a vid on Top Gear of the Atom: 300hp beast. Only thing is, like others have said, this little guy is the same chassis, but the engine was swapped out. Odd thing is, the Atom is ~$72,000 from england, but the X1 is $150,000. What's up with that?
