I want one. I really, REALLY want one. I've always liked MINIs, and to have an electric version would be worth putting up with the yellow roof.
Unfortunately, as cool as this is, it carries a whiff of the evil that befouled GM in its treatment of the EV1: they're leasing the cars, not selling them, which means that they can pull every last one from the market and destroy them if they so choose.
