Norster 600R

This answer to this question: "What do you get when you combine an Austin Healey Sprite with a modern mid-engine sports car and a golf cart?"

Basing anything off the looks of the frogeye Sprite isn't a good idea (surprisingly yet to be featured here), but add the awkward proportions of the mid-engine layout and the upright windshield and 20hp engine from a golf cart and you the recipe for automotive failure.
