Thanks. From your link:

“A tiny car company backed by former Vice President Al Gore has just gotten a $529 million U.S. government loan to help build a hybrid sports car in Finland that will sell for about $89,000.”

U.S. taxpayer subsidised.

Was the loan ever paid back? Thanks for the insight FRiends. Now I can rag on him what a cod sack he is for buying one.

If I was ever going to buy a "reasonably priced" European sports car I would go with one of these for $280,000+
