Well I'll be the first to say I don't like it. Its about as ugly a car as I've ever seen, and it is built to accomodate incompetence.

Don't hold back, Walter - how do you REALLY feel? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

I don't like the looks either, but the concept is pretty clever.

We all understand that some people can't find reverse even with an automatic tranny - maybe Darwin had a point.

Outlaw automatic tranny's! Takes over half the incomp's off the road in an eyeblink and the other half will quickly take themselves out... come to think of it, outlaw air conditioning too. ALL air conditioning. Florida would clear out like someone yelled "FIRE!" in a theatre... and I'd have a lot better place to drive and work on my LBC's. </tongue-in-cheek mode>

The question is: "Why Didn't I Think of This?"

Hmmm? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif Let me think? Because you have taste? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

No wait! I know this one.. Ah ah! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif I got it. Because you have GOOD taste. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devilgrin.gif
