Buddy of mine from California sent these. Anybody know if this is for real? I asked him if it came with laser cannons and photonic torpedoes and he told me only the military can get those options installed. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/jester.gif


This part I've seen,

This I have not. People can't drive with a round steering wheel never mind this.

Closer look at the joystick steering. Just noticed no pedals either.

Yep, its real - a pretty nice concept car from the Paris Car Show in 1996.

Thanks Tony,

Wow, I really thought he was pulling my leg with this one.
 
The trunk/boot opening looks pretty useless for daily use, big but you cant get anything into it! (but then again so does the rest of it for me!!). The way it is set up you would have thought the instrumentation would have been laid out or either LHJ (left hand joystick) or RHJ (righthand joystick)!
 
Its just another concept car. Getting reaction to ideas. No different really than the 'Jet/Atomic' cars of the 1950's. Showing ideas that 'could be' in the future.

They had some of theose 1950's 'Concepts' at Goodwood in '04.

Hehehe, that's funny! The concept car really is the Alfa BAT and pre-dated the batmobile!! /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif !
 
Yup. I like the Alfa more. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smirk.gif
