Buy It Now for $15,950 on eBay Motors. “Over $60,000 invested” in this four door roadster (doesn’t have a top). “1983 Rolls Royce Silver Spirit Roadster. $10K custom candy metal flake paint with flames and a full white interior with red piping. Just about anything that can be gold plated was.”

that's just awful. I suppose worse things have been done, though.

28-Cars-Later So Honda are you serious again or will the lame continue?
Fred I had a 2009 S-line mine was chipped but otherwise stock. I still say it was the best "new" car I ever had. I wanted to get the new A3, but it was too expensive, didn't come with a hatch and no manual.
3-On-The-Tree If Your buying a truck like that your not worried about MPG.
W Conrad I'd gladly get an EV, but I can't even afford anything close to a new car right now. No doubt if EV's get more affordable more people will be buying them. It is a shame so many are stuck in their old ways with ICE vehicles. I realize EV's still have some use cases that don't work, but for many people they would work just fine with a slightly altered mindset.
Master Baiter There are plenty of affordable EVs--in China where they make all the batteries. Tesla is the only auto maker with a reasonably coherent strategy involving manufacturing their own cells in the United States. Tesla's problem now is I think they've run out of customers willing to put up with their goofy ergonomics to have a nice drive train.
