Corey Gouker's Machine Inside the Mind

Lately I've been digging the idea of selling my 06 GTI and somehow acquiring a good EV. I figure an EV combined with solar power on the roof of a house would be a wicked way of doing things. I guess the only real limitation at this point is financial. I can't afford a Tesla, but that's exactly the type of car I'd go for, especially since I only need something that'll do 80-100 miles a day. It's a shame the thing is so expensive, normally I'd never consider spending more than $30K on a car but somehow an EV would be the one exception to that. The Wrightspeed X1 would be cool if it were $50K, enclosed (only because of Seattle rain... and street legal.

I wonder how hard it would be to convert the GTI to all electric.
