I saw a really cool interview that Jay Leno did a while back.  He was interviewing a Honda engineer about fuel cell tech. In it he said more or less - "This car is what will enable me to keep driving my old cars."   I love that sentiment.  The number of true car guys/gals out there is so small.  Most people would be just fine driving a reasonable sized hydrogen car.  I'd probably drive one for commuting.  I'd be driving my Westy or my 911 on the weekends though!










Another note, Mazda built a hydrogen RX-7 back in the 90's.  It actually burned the hydrogen as fuel.  A bit different way to get the same result.
