How about the Messerschmitt 3-wheel bubble car? Made from 1955 - 1964, it's similar to the Can-Am except it's got a car design on top of three wheels.
If gasoline goes up to eight dollars/gallon, something like this could be the ride of das future?
For $5500 U.S., there's the Swedish Smite which is a 2011 version that's similar in looks to the Messerschmitt KR200 and built in Sweden by a company named Vehiconomics. Top speed: about 60-mph, weight-286 lbs without any people inside, seats for driver and one passenger, gas mileage-don't know but it better be super-duper economical!
286 lbs sure seems very light for a two seater car capable of doing 60-mph! Do they make a police cruiser model designed for local police departments looking to keep their costs down?
