Awesome review. I learned some things I hadn't heard about the E7 before and now I like it even more!

And I can't believe that with as much as I loved the seats I didn't get a full on picture of them.

i was wondering the same thing about the seats there pudge =P
but that is one outstanding car (from the looks of it so far)
next question is - how does it handle?-=Twan007

Unfortunately it wasn't to be driven when we were there. It is operable, however no test drives. Originally Posted by Twan007

That was a great line how the E7's got so many lights it would make a volunteer firefighter want a bigger alternator and a Gall's catalogue!!!

Is there room for long guns up front? We carry both an 870 and AR up front.

I think pudge did a great job with this story! I have never heard of this vehicle prior to this.
As pudge said we will be adding more photo's to the story in the next 24 hours.

Outstanding review, Pudge!!! Great photos and a thorough account of this little puppy. I WANT ONE! But until they make them available, I will stick with my 95 Chev LT 1.
Thank you for the hard work...this is an excellent piece.

I used to be one of Carbon Motors biggest fans but at the IACP Conference they had one on display and had a rope around it. If its no strong enough for cops to touch then it will never make it on the strret. The reps around the car were only talking to the people with Chief or Sheriff listed on there name tag. They paid no attention to anyone like me that makes all the recommendations on vehicles.

Dodge, Chevy, Ford, and Specialty Vehicles were like that! We were allowed to climb all over a Bell Helicopter, but the Carbon was behind the rope Originally Posted by Pudge113
