I saw a Tesla on October 24th, 2013 in Middletown, Rhode Island. I was pulling out of the parking lot at a bank and he was pulling in. I think that was the only one I've seen east of the Mississippi River.

The purchase price for the 2014 Mitsubishi I-EV has been lowered to $22,995 before the federal tax credit of $7.500 . Not sure if there are any states that give an additional tax credit . Here's the news at the Mitsubishi site , http://media.mitsubishicars.com/chan...7-a376e2bd930f .

Wow . That price cut might lead to more U.S. residents considering it for purchase. The U.S. only ranks 6th in consumer purchases of this car (and its 'branded for other makes'--Peugeot, etc. equivalents) behind Japan, France, Norway, Germany, and Austria. Drats...I lost the link...but link = Japan = over 7,000 units , Norway = over 3,000 units, and Germany = over 1,800 units, and U.S. = 588 units.

I think it looks kind of like a cross between a Ford Probe and the General Motors EV1 (see link....not the Mitsu).
