" How would you like to own a vehicle with super car performance that starts at just $49,999.00? If you don&amp;#039;t mind giving up a wheel and some creature comforts, you can have one. Tanom Motors will be unveiling the TR-3 roadster and a special edition Sammy Hagar &amp;quot;Red Rocker&amp;quot; version of the Invader TC-3 Coupe at this year&amp;#039;s SEMA Show. The unique high performance reverse trike design features two steering front wheels and one rear driven wheel. The two side-by-side bucket seats will accommodate six foot plus occupants and you don&amp;#039;t have to be a motorcycle expert to drive it as the controls are similar to those found in any sports car \u2013 a steering wheel, gas, brake and clutch pedals and a six-speed sequential shifter and reverse gear. Standard amenities include a locking glove box, map light, power point and, heaven forbid, cup holders. Tanom even suggests that two locking watertight compartments make the Invader perfect for a weekend getaway or quick trip to the store.  Both the TR-3 and TC-3 feature a fiberglass body covering a frame constructed from one-and-a-half-inch tubular steel with a front crash zone, triangulated side protection bars and a complete roll-cage surrounding the cockpit. Power is provided by a 1300 cc Suzuki Hayabusa water-cooled four-cylinder engine capable of delivering 197 horsepower to the 18-inch wide rear tire. Tanom says the Invader rockets from a standing start to 60 mph in just under four seconds. A race-inspired forged front suspension features unequal length control arms and a lightweight aluminum swing arm in the rear. If you need to stop in a hurry there are a pair of four piston calipers in front and a single six-piston caliper in the rear. According to Tanom, the special edition Sammy Hagar &amp;quot;Red Rocker Invader TC-3&amp;quot; has been created under the direction of the Red Rocker himself. Each one features a signature Red Rocker paint scheme with carbon fiber trim and a custom suede interior accented by red stitching and custom embroidered seats. Each of the 55 &amp;quot;Red Rocker Invader TC-3&amp;quot;being built will feature a serialized plaque signed by Sammy himself. Back in the 1930s Morgan sold a three-wheel sports car that was a big hit with sports car enthusiasts. Could one call the Tanom Invader a modern Morgan?
