I think if I ever ran into that car on the highway I would feel obliged to light up the tires as I passed.

You guys shouldn't be so ignorant I mean it looks goofy as hell but but its just a different type of enthusiast...I've been floating around some of the Gas saving related forums and the hardcore people go to those extremes to gain MPGs...

But his claim to 90mpg is not far fetched, its cx hatch which is going to be getting mid 40mpgs from the factory, with aerodynamic mods which reduce wind resistance and drag which he has gone way over the top with he could ideally claim that mpg, I believe he claimed 90mpg at 30mph if you looked he was getting 65mpg at higher speeds, I believe he is ussing a superMID which is a device that will give you real time MPG numbers so his claim of 90mpg isn't going to be what he figures out at the pump when he fills up... Just saying even though it looks like ****, there is some enginering and proven facts like the boat tail design and wheel well covers that can reduce drag and gain you MPGs...but yea he would have done it a little more ascetically appealing... just trying to make you see why he did it, its not like he put altezzas and a fart can on it and claims its a race car lol he acctually is making his econo box even more of one lol...

looks like a shark, at first i thought it was a joke until i read it. you might get 90 mpg, but you will look like a wacko. if i was that into getting good mileage id honestly just wake up 3 hours early and ride a bike to work.

he should put thin plexi glass under the whole car, smooth out all the ****ty body work he did, get pizza cutter tires and nitrogen fill them with super light 13 inch wheels, flat hubcaps, gut the whole car except 1 seat and a steering wheel and all the stuff to make it legal. ditch the radio, wires carpet, he should also get an intake and get rid of that choked up muffler. or just stop being cheap and buy a ford excursion
