Actually, you're better off buying a Mitsubihi i-Miev, a bunch of solar panels, a battery storage system for all that electricity you produce when you and your car are at work during the day, and then never having to pay for fuel ever again.
Using solar panels on your house to only recharge your car only works if your car is at home during the day (most people tend to work during the day, you know). So that means you need a storage solution for all that power your panels generate.
Now, if you can build a portable panel system that you can setup next you your car while it's parked at work, that would be better.
