Back in high school, I was involved in a solar car project. The main problem with mainstreaming solar cars is the solar cells. The 10 cm X 10 cm wafers of silicon are too delicate and rigid. Flexible solar cells made of plastic and organic materials promises to change this. Depending on how efficient they can be made to be, solar cells may make it into production cars one day.
Personally, I've become hooked on Pepsi Blue, but have found very few people who've come to agree with me. Seems people either really like it or really hate it. It does have that "paint thinner" kind of taste, but then again so does good old vodka.:)
