I like the general shape of it, and would love to see them actually release something like that as a production car.

Don't know what they were thinking when they went with the headlights that look like something VERY un-mentionable.:lookaroun

. . . unfortunately, the only thing we'll likely see in a production car are the headlights that look like something very un-mentionable.

If you look closely at the headlights...you can almost see the little guy in the boat!

The front looks too busy...but I do like the general shape of it. I'm a guy that likes clean lines and there really aren't many clean lines in that front end...it looks like they just built every pencil line as they sketched it out.

BTW...is this a concept for a car they're thinking of releasing to the public or a concept for a LeMans car?

I was curious about that myself, but I didn't see any clear statements. I think I remember seeing somewhere that it was based on an actual race car in which case, my guess is that they're using it as an attention getting way to experiment with "design elements".

Depending on the reception, you may see some of these types of shapes incorporated (in very watered down form) on production cars.

. . . of course I hope I'm wrong on that and they actually produce a version and sell it for $100,000 as a competitor to the Audi R8. That would be cool.

Yes - it's sat empty and closed for the last 5+ years :)

I have a vent mount for the minivan so I can pop between the two easily. I haven't done a hardwire in the van yet though.

Mine too sat empty the entire time I had it. (It is pretty slick how smooth the door goes up though :lol: )

Cool!

I must be getting old, but I kind of like the new Harley "Cross Bones":

Though I think I'd prefer the straight bars off the Fat-Bob in place of the Ape-Hangers.

Jerry, why are you throwing up on your keyboard over the Mercedes HHR?

That's all car manufacturers do these days. They take a car...and put a different badge on them. :lol:

I mean, look at the Porsche Touraeg. :lol:

Does anyone know anything about the Yes roadster?

They say it's coming to the US, but I hadn't heard about it until 5 minutes ago.:shrug:

The specs sound interesting, but I'm guessing it will be pricey.
