On their site it says "taking orders for the jeepster in July". that leads me to think they dont even have one on site.

I dunno.
I fired them off an email too and I will be in Ft. Lauderdale on Monday thru Wednesday of next week (June 23-25th). If they don't contact me back, I will look at the address and stop by. I'll let you know what I find... Stay tuned...

The name can be seen on the rear at their website> GSMOON

I did a search for GsMoon, and all they show is scooters and ATV's.

I think you'll find this is a "to be built eventually", concept car.

I used every search engine I could think of.

I wonder if it's a clone of the SV/DL650 motor, that the Koreans seem so fond of??? I realize this is Chinese, but Asian is Asian!

I finally got an email back. It's not street legal on all 50 states (but it is in GA), shipping is $600 and they are expecting them in for shipment in LATE July.

I managed to get a reply from these guys... all it said was a one sentence, "Its a street legal vehicle and its $8,995" so anyone who orders one please let us know if it's worth it!

Sounds to me like this company is getting slammed with emails and is just replying back with the shortest and least amount of info as possible just to get the email answered.

Or hes just an idiot.

I called a little while ago. the woman I spoke with was very nice. she said they have gotten HUNDREDS of emails about them and is trying to respond as fast as they can. also, the phone has been ringing almost nonstop about them. she said,"I hope we can get enough of them to keep up with the demand. We've gotten more response about these than anything else we've ever sold. We really don't know a whole lot about them until we get them"

she sounded like they are overwelmed with requests about it.
she was really cool. just seemed overworked!

The Chinese "Jeepster" is not legal to enter the US as its a violation of
Jeep trademark. Containers of these vehicles could be seized at port of entry by
US customs.

They are produced by GSmoon company of Qingdao China. I don't believe
they are produced for domestic use because you can buy a Chery QQ new
4 passenger car for less than $4000 USD in China.

Bu they look cool. Probably junk. I will go to Qingdao in late fall and
see what's up.

Qingdao is the most famous brew town in China!....
