    Turbo Carver One



    I was hooked when I saw the stock one...then I found this...first search...I KNEW someone had to have turbo'd that thing LOL...gotta find some road course vids of this one though...I'm more interested in how well it can actually handle compared to stock motorcycles and cars.

    Hard to tell from the vids...they aren't really cornering over 30-40mph...I take 45mph corners doing 60 in my 00 boat accord...so not impressed. I want REAL cornering vids...this thing at least LOOKS like it should corner beyond all others...but...looks can be deceiving.










    too bad they cost over $50k...still...not too bad considering. Hell new harley's go for 30-40k don't they? Guess if you had the money and wanted to play

    I'd get one. THAT would be a fun car even without the 400bhp.

        right man...I mean I can't imagine that thing having MORE power and torque...than my 93 accord...but taking off faster than my v8 supra or my bike...but handling better than any of them? Shit...it doesn't take much power when you're THAT little...and can HANDLE like that!

        plus...unlike say a gokart or motorcycle...it prolly holds up decent in a crash...in relation to a motorcycle...or go kart...lol

        Edit...I say that...cause I'm sure you could get this to handle good too...but safe? HELL NO!

          Such a shame that they're bankrupt.

          But still a cool thing!

            They come turbo in stock form.

            Yeah, it's sad that the companies that make cool little cars like this never seem to survive. There's just not enough of a market for it. They'd be better off selling them as kits.

              Didn't realize they were bankrupt...might explain why I had such a hard time finding pricing on one LOL...
