Are you sure Venturi haven't been building and crashing test vehicles? At $400,000 per car sold, they might be able to afford it. That's assuming they manage to sell all 25 "production" cars, which I don't see happening yet.
The classic Caterham Seven is sold in the USA as a kit, as a means of dodging the more annoying and costly regulations.

The Javlon XS500, from what I gather, will be made in China and is derived from an existing Chinese car. Four doors, very conservative looks, 80+ MPH, 120+ miles range, Li-ion battery.
