Tesla

I saw 2 of these while driving through Mountain View. You never see these in the North Bay. I guess all the action is in Silicon Valley. The Tesla cost around $100k. If there was a dealership in Sonoma, I would definitely test drive one.

Ariel Atom

This car is the second fastest non-race car on the market after Bugatti. While Bugatti is going to start out around $800k, The Ariel Atom can be had for 80k.
