I've been watching this. Perhaps an affordable T-Rex? Just saw this report saying the base is just under $20,000 and the upgraded SL at $23,999. 173 HP 2384 CC engine. I bet it's a blast to drive.

Oh my god why did I have to see that.  Maybe there should be a spoiler alert in the title!  The heck with the T-Rex.

Cool. Virginia classifies this as a three-wheel motorcycle, so it would still be eligible for HOV lanes with a singe person.
