Jay Leno' turbine-powered EcoJet supercar

The EcoJet is powered by a Honeywell LT-101 turbine engine producing 650 horsepower and 400 ft-lbs that runs on bio-diesel fuel. The engine sits in a modified Corvette Z06 hydroformed aluminum frame with aluminum and magnesium structural and chassis components.
The vehicle's shell is an advanced construction of carbon fiber over Kevlar.
The EcoJet's shape is a mix of Cadillac's current design language and cues taken from F1 racers and aeronautical craft.
