If you've ever sen the car in the video it's called the Bricklin SV-1 and was made between 1974 and 1976. It's maker is Malcolm Bricklin, an American Entrepreneur. Bricklin brought Suburu to America from Japan, as well as Fiat X1-9, and the Yugo. In the 90s he turned his attention to making environmentally friendly vehicles, making an electric bike called The EV Warrior. Today, Bricklin is combining his experience with fuel cell technology and his knoweldge of manufacturing techniques and economics to create a line of plug - in hybrid vehicles or PHEVs, which he says can be installed in your car right now, making it more gas efficient. I sat down with Bricklin at the San Francisco screening of "The Entrepreneur" , a movie about him. In our talk, he revealed that he got a call that morning to be the President-Elect's "Car Czar", a job he turned down. He explained why.

"Have I ever seen this car?" Yes, I see it everyday, it's in my garage. When do I get royalties for use of my picture?

Tesla Motors has a far better design aesthetic, which is definitely required to compete against today's auto makers. If you look at the Visionary Vehicles website, is really feels completely amateur and poorly designed. The design on the car itself is laughably ugly. Bricklin's heart is in the right place, but he should not be making calls on design decisions. Watch The Entrepreneur and you will see an example when he refuses to listen to his board about their logo design.

I don't really see how bringing products in from other countries to usurp dollars that would otherwise feed into the american manufacturing base is something that should be admired or celebrated. his latest move is to try to bring cars from a Chinese company called Chery into the U.S. market. i think a better move would be to fix our own manufacturing base and auto companies so that they can export cars and compete with the likes of Toyota, than to give all our business to China.
