    Did anyone see the Aptera in the new Start Trek movie?

    Good flick by the way, you don't need to know the series.

    Thanks Jay., Thanks Jay.

    That was fun to watch.

    "Silica based fiber"... (AKA "Fiberglass!")

    If they start mandating noise generators, the Aptera definitely deserves to have the Jetsons sound.

    By the way, the dog's name is Astro.

    The Aptera looks like it was designed for "Silica based life forms".

    Designed to cruise through a Star Trek Horta tunnel.

    Seriously, I like the Aptera, but it does remind me of some sort of insect from Starship Troopers.

    haha

    The fiberglass is Silica based! It not a Hard style rosin.

    And check out Azure Dynamics it looks like these guys will be the maker of the motor....at least that is what is on the units seen around. Nice cheap penny stock.

    Yes, I'm actually very early on the wait list... Seriously, it does sound like he will be adding one to his stable. Oh, to own that garage!
