It's a Nevada Penny Stock. What do you think?

Found this with a Google:

I got one of those stupid stock spam messages the other day, but just
before I hit the delete button, I saw the words "electric vehicle".
Intrigued, I went to my trash folder to see what this was.

The stock symbol is WHSL, and I looked it up at Yahoo at:

finance.yahoo.com

There some pretty interesting headlines there; a $1 million investment,
then a $10 million loan, but most notably (in my opinion) the
acquisition of the rights to the engine that powered the electric
Lexuses (Lexi?) in the movie "Minority Report".

(See futureenergies.com )

There are a couple of red flags:

1) The car has 500kW, but a zero-to-sixty time of 4.5 seconds. I guess
this just means the car is really heavy? By comparison the tZero has
only 150kW but a 0-60 time of 4.0 seconds. (At only 2,000 pounds)
Plus, the tZero was using lead-acid batteries!

2) Their ticker symbol is sometimes referred to as WISV instead of WHSL.
Why the change? Why are they sometimes Whistler Investments, sometimes
NuPow'r LLC, and sometimes NuAge Electric (NAE)?

3) One of their PR statements says:

> NuPow'r LLC., (NPL), is a 'new age' electric vehicle and electric
> products development company founded by Chaz Haba - co founder of
> Intel, the inventor of the 'computer chip' in the late 50's with
> Fairchild, and the largest single investor in Apple Computer in
> the 60's. Known as the Thomas Edison of the new millennium, together
> with his associate engineers and physicists, he's changing the world
> as we know it.

Apple Computer wasn't founded until 1976.

Is any of this real, or is this just another Tilley Foundation?
