a futuristic concept car,
but unlike many concept cars this one actually goes and you can buy it, a number of ETVs (Extra Terrestrial Vehicle) have been made, including one model that is on display at the London Motor Museum in Middlesex, the one pictured is based on a run-of-the-mill Chevrolet sporting a two litre supercharged engine which sends 270bhp to the front wheels through a five-speed gearbox, the car also comes equipped with 2 cameras in an aid to help you park it, in case you think it is a bit low for some roads the ride height is adjustable for day to day motoring, but other donor car options are available, ETVs have been supplied based on cars such as the Chevy Cobalt, Chevy Cobalt SS, Chevy Aveo, Toyota Echo, Honda Insight, Toyota MR2 and the Porsche Boxster,
the cars have been built by Michael Vetter, or Kit Car Mike as he is known who runs The Car Factory in Florida, America, like it or loath it the car will certainly be a head turner even against some of the worlds greatest super cars, Michael commented, 'I was unprepared for the initial response I would get while driving it but I would say I get five times as many people photographing it than if I was in a supercar, if you think a Bugatti Veyron gets a lot of attention, be prepared for something of a different flavour as this brings in so much positive energy', so there you have it, to stand out from the crowd give The Car Factory a call, wave £75,000 at them and its yours!
