I saw it driving down the street this evening and thought it was pretty cool. It sounded like a motorcycle.

I think that is a Meyers Manx or a derivative of it by the looks of it, they use a VW Beetle aircooled four cylinder

I just looked at the Myers Manx website and didn't see anything like this.

a Manx was the closest thing I could think of
interestingly, the same company that made what you took a picture of makes the utility ATV's or a clone of the ATV's that the light construction and maintance staff at my school uses
clone? (http://www.huvur.com/800UTV/800%20UTV.html)
cloned? (http://powersports.honda.com/offroad/muv.aspx)

It looks like a clone from the website, the Chery engine used is a cheap chinese made unit. Chery is pretty known for ripping off other companies designs.

Thanks for the info wetamup2k3g! This thing looks like it would be fun. He was driving it in downtown Chicago.
