You looking for a car to be different in? How about my Goggomobile?
Hans Glas Goggomobile
TS 300 specifications and performance:
Configuration — Glas 2-stroke rear engine, 298 cc displacement
Engine — 2 cylinder, 2 stroke, air-cooled, 58 x 56 mm. bore and stroke, 6.0:1 compression, 15 hp. at 5,000 rpm, 17.4 lb·ft torque.
Transmission — 4 speed plus reverse.
Top Speed — 53 mph (On a trip to San Francisco from Los Angeles, I jammed the throttle through the firewall for most of the trip and saw 57 mph on a down hill section.)
Tires — 4.80 x 10 inch.
Weight — 926 lb (I was able to park the rear, get out, pick up the front and walk it into a tight parking space only twelve feet wide.)
Wheelbase — 71 in
Height - 49 in
Length - 114.5 in
Width - 53 in
Cost: $30 was high bid at the Los Angeles docks. I purchased two (one for parts because there was no other source for parts.)
The trip to S.F. yeilded 42.2 mpg, most of that driven flat out.
Acceleration was specified as 0-50 mph (80 km/h) in 27.9 seconds. That must have been on an empty tank with their smallest test driver. I timed it and got 30.1 seconds.
I'll sell one to you cheap. How about $12,000 plus shipping? (They are very rare.) You will be a real hit driving up to the hanger in a Goggomobile.
