These little cars are really amazing. I first saw one in an electric vehicle competition I was competing in back in 1999.
The quote in that article from Larry Page from Google is semi-accurate.

"We drove one a long time ago," Google co-founder Larry Page says. "Sort of a milk-carton-material car."

It's actually more like the material they use to make the
Step-2 kids slides and playground equimpent. Kinda funny when you first realize that fact, but it really is a very strong material.
They are a blast to drive, and although kinda small, very comfortable.
I can't wait to see the Sterling put into one and see these Th!nk's* mass produced. <crosses fingers>
I'll be first in line for one when that happens.
*Think may be the newly adopted name, but when I first saw these the "I" in Think was replaced with an "!" for a more trendy name.
