High Performance 3 Wheeled Cars

Admittedly, in some cases, the “high performance” refers to their fuel economy. There’s the VentureOne.

Top speed is said to be 100 MPH.

The Aptera is way cool looking, IMHO.

And here’s a site that features a number of high mileage (and high performance) ones. Some of them are one offs, others of them are kits, and a few more are mass produced (or at least were at one point in time).

When I was in high school I went to check out an amazing new car called the Dale. It would get 70mpg and could survive undamaged in a 60mph crash by just letting it sit in the sun and unwarp.

Yeah, it was a scam, run by a 6 foot tall 200 pound transsexual. Good thing that I didn’t have $100,000 to invest at the time.

Crap, I always thought the Isetta had 3 wheels but I guess it has two closely spaced rear wheels. Not exactly high performance either. I still want to get one.

Last I heard, one guy owned nearly all the known Isettas in the US. Someday, he’s gonna make a huge fortune. :rolleyes:

I don’t think that’s true, as a quick Google search turns up oodles of US based sites, with tips for folks who own them.

There are 3 wheeled Isettas. One of the 3 in the Harold LeMay collection is a 3 wheeler.
