7. Unsafe to drive until most everyone else has one, too.
If I tried to drive that and got hit by and SUV - or, hell, a sedan, my kids and I would be flattened.

At least it doesn't totally look like a bubble.

BTW, why DO they make all these green cars look like a bubble? It seems they would get better mileage - gasoline or otherwise - if they were more aerodynamic (and, while soap bubbles can float on air, metal "bubbles" are more wind resistant, thus using more torque to pull).
