ZAP showing Alias in New Orleans

I got a Press Release from ZAP yesterday saying that they are bringing a red ZAP Alias (pictured) to the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA) in New Orleans, January 24-29th, 2009. Best quote from the PR: "ZAP indicated the mass-production version of the Alias is targeted to be priced under $35,000. In 2009, ZAP plans to produce a limited number of hand-crafted, Signature Series Alias roadsters."

I find it strange that they choose to include not a picture of this red Alias, but instead a computer rendering of it. Autoblog Green readers are tearing into them again. You can check out the new Alias Brochure II as well. I'm looking forward to seeing actual photos emerge from NADA next week.
