Amphibious?

No water ability. The Ferves was an Italian car manufactured from 1965 until 1970. Based on the Fiat 500, it was a multi-purpose car powered by a rear-mounted 499 cc two-cylinder in-line engine. It was available as a two-wheel drive or four wheel drive and had a maximum speed of around 45 mph.

Rolls Royce of the future

Yeah, it's nice I suppose, but - is it really a Car? Or is it just an autonomous conveyance thingy? Now, on the other hand -

This Rolls Royce from the future is a car. With a chauffeur, even... Well, it would be, if the future was now, and it wasn't a prop for the International Rescue TV Show in the mid '60s... But, Rolls Royce did actually approve it, so...

Borrows an awful lot from other makers.

It especially looks too much like a Koenigsegg CCX on the top. The front looks like a Volvo XC90 If I squint I see a tad of LFA and the mirrors, while very cool looking, remind me of something Pagani have done. That's not a bad thing at all since Pagani are rolling art museums.

In the end it's like a Salvador Dali painting. I recognize many things in it even though they are altered. They are well done for sure. I like it, I can't especially say why

Toyota is going to take their concept supercar into production. A 986 HP monster.

Not too fond of the front three-quarter view, but the others look great.

Always liked something about the Reliant Scimitar.

A friend of mine designed the airconditioning system for the Viper. Chrysler created the car without thought that anyone would need/want AC in it. The outsourced the development of it, and my firend was chosen to do the work. One thing he needed was the car, on-hand, to make it happen so he got one to use for a few weeks.

I would have baked in a few "delays". Hey! Do you want it FAST or do you want it RIGHT? I need another month. Maybe two.

I actually got to see both of those race on a track - Brands Hatch, IIRC. The Terrell was... interesting, but I knew, somehow, that it wasn't going to be a success. It was rather... odd... to look at the Chaparral, and then hear a Rotax snowmobile engine start up. Also disconcerting to see it get sucked down onto the pavement... But, when the big-block Chevy fired up? It was all good...
