Even with concept cars that are drivable, rarely do they hit more than 2 mph as they are carefully moved from transporter to display stand at the various car shows. That can't be said of the Mazda Furai, however, as it's basically an American LeMans Series race car clothed in a swanky new street legal body. The Furai's three rotor Wankel engine runs on E100 ethanol to deliver about 450 horsepower, although there's no word as to what the translates to in real on the road numbers.
Speaking of translations, Furai in English comes out as roughly The Sound of Wind, although I'm not sure if that conveys the exact nuance they were looking for.
