The mention of the VW GX3 concept car on the Internet BMW Riders list has spun off all sorts of other mentions of small, fast, minimalist cars. If only you could get an Ariel Atom in the states... The likelihood, though, is incredibly low.

It's an open-wheel, open-bodywork, open... well, almost everything 500 kilo 300bhp speed-monster that does 0-60 in just over 2 seconds, and is apparently well-behaved enough to be a daily driver (if you don't need a roof and don't need to haul much). I doubt it's got the fuel efficiency of the VW, but with that sort of performance, who cares?

Shiny!!!!!!!!!
You're evil for tempting me like this. This is my dream car! My big milestone birthday is coming up, and gee, wouldn't it make a nice gift?

Actually reading again and letting my brain comprehend I see that the VW GX3 would work for me. I would just need to figure out a proper way to use the passenger space for cargo. For some reason numbers were reversed in my brain so that 46 was not good gas milage, in fact it is exactly in the range where my dream machine would be. The price is okay too. The only problem is the lack of a boot.
