There's a HUGE waiting list for them in the US, so you see crazy prices for them on eBay. The model I bought, the Pure, lists for $11,990. With destination and options, it was $13,600. The base Passion is $13,990, and the Passion Cabrio is $16,990.
The prices on eBay make NO sense. I had several sellers asking for more than MSRP, saying the cars are impossible to get. Thanks to the current economy, a LOT of people that ordered cars over a year ago can no longer take delivery, and others have changed their mind because gas got cheap, so dealers are sitting on cars (one dealer in Chicago has 30). And the dealers can't ask for more than MSRP.
As for range, it gets good gas mileage but also has a crazy small gas tank - around 9 gallons. I'm told I'll get 400 miles or so from the free tank I got with the car. Top speed is limited to 90mph. Zero to 60 is 13 seconds.
