If you pay attention to climate scientists, you will find that we are already at an unacceptable level of carbon concentration, and that we risk melting the polar caps if we continue down this path. If it hadn't been for the government tax rebate, Washington State's 'no sales tax', and the Ecotality program (free charger), we could not have bought this car. We felt it was important to be an 'early adopter' and to encourage others to buy and drive EV's. And as a bonus, this is a fabulous, fun car to drive, and has very little in the way of maintenance.

I imagine people selling their Veyron for a profit after 10k miles! :) By the way, I honestly think it’s great value. I imagine people selling their Veyron for a profit after 10k miles! :)
