I currently have two cars, a 2000 Honda Insight hybrid and a 1969 Subaru 360 truck. I don't have any pictures of the Insight right now, but I've got a few of the truck!
Next to an abnormally large truck:
With two 360 vans owned by my friends:
These things are great. I'd actually say they might be comparable to the amount of attention a D gets. Everybody's always staring as you drive by, people constantly ask for pictures and ask what it is. It's especially funny when six people clamber out of one of the vans.
My truck needs brake and engine work. It used to run just fine, but now it only backfires when you try to start it. Might be an ignition problem. I need to troubleshoot it more. All the brake slave cylinders need to be rebuilt, too. One of the 360 vans has an EFI conversion that we did, so I will probably switch to that as well. We want to swap old Mini hubs on so we can get some decent disc brakes, too.

Haha, you and everyone I know. I've thought about several different turbocharged 4 cylinger engines. Since it weighs so little, it shouldn't take much to get up and go.
Honestly I'm going to do the same as what I did with the DeLorean. Drive it for several years with the original engine, and decide how I feel about it. If I decide it needs more power, I'll make decisions now. I even have a spare transmission so mocking up an adapter setup would be fairly easy.
