Has anyone considered converting your 6gc to an electric car?

I know, it a super down grade on performance and has a range of 100 miles. But with all the enviromental concerns going around, doesn't that make you want to be a pioneer in the next car technology?

Electric vehicles have come on a long way in the last few years, for instance the Tessla Roadster achieves the following:

* 0 to 60 in under 4 seconds
* 13000 rpm max
* 248hp
* Top speed 125mph
* 245 miles on single charge (combined city/highway)
* Charges empty to full in under 3.5 hours
* Equivalent to 135mpg
* Less then 2 cents per mile
* High torque across the speed range

Oh, and prices start at $98k.
