This thing looks great and I am really excited for it. I just hope I actually see one of these driving down the street in California some day.

Don't they have a real one built that they can take a picture of instead of using a computer rendering?

I'd like to see a turbo- biodiesel option powered with hempseed oil ofcourse.  |

They have the little video showing a running prototype: http://www.wikispeed.com/NotableFactsBut, it looks like they haven't made a real body yet, just the plug to make a mold for the body. |

I have heard of these external cumbustion engines before but they are not within typical consumer reach just yet. Another interesting technology around the corner is micro-turbine powerplant. But in the mean time, I'd would rather just love to drive around listening to a big turbo spool maybe even with this decal over the fuel cell/door.  |

I wonder what producers of hemp fuel do with all the waste product (everything but seeds)... SR? |
They're there, in their room.
Your mining rig is on fire, yet you're very calm.

Similar to how cannabis plants are bred for lots of cannabinoids, hemp plants are bred for attributes suitable to industrial purposes, and have very little cannabinoids. You won't be getting high at all (or at least very much) off of hemp. |

The first is by definition not flawed.

Except most high cannabanoid varieties have few to no seeds since their production uses the same resources as the drug production. Industrial hemp will only give you a headache. |

Alrighty, I'm convinced. The odometer on this car is what makes me really want it.  |

It looks like an analog clock from the 90's. Or now. Almost frighteningly plain. It would drive the teenagers wild. So new and impressive! |

Any new vehicle of mine is going to be modular, whether wikispeed or some future competitor.
Pay a someone to service and fix your car? Pay them to assemble it? Pay for an entriely new car when new technologies become available?
Hell no. Go wikispeed!
