    They spent that amount of money and are still sending out renderings? Why not just spend a tiny bit more and get a photographer?

    Whoo.


    Thanks Rinspeed, I was missing one entry on my top ten ways to blow 1.25 million dollars.


    Just a warning Rinspeed: The other nine actually leave you feeling pretty good though, so if another option comes along, I'm taking your ass off of the list.

    "The iChange has as its main attraction, the ability to change from a 1 seater to a 2 seater and finally into a 3 seater via some electronic trickery."


    You'd think that if they spent $1.25 million building this thing, they'd be able to show us some of that trickery instead of what looks like a very solid non-transforming fiberglass mockup.

    @SirNotAppearing: Seems that after "promotional" costs, there wasn't quite enough money left in the budget to ensure the roof mechanism operated properly, so the hard hats are there for protection.

    I also grow from a one-seater to a three-seater.


    I'm not electric, though, and my emissions can be somewhat noxious. So, I guess this car has one thing up on me.

    @Jo Schmo, Pauljones evil and opposite twin: Au contraire! You make sure to pass a cop as you're heading over to the hookers' place, showing him that you have a one-seater, then store the hookers in the other seats after you kill them. Foolproof alibi!

    @Jo Schmo, Pauljones evil and opposite twin: That's what ziplocs are for. You can seal them up nice and tight. Get the freezer bags if you're worried about disease, they tend to have a thicker wall and won't tear as easy.

    @engineerd thinks cannoli is deserving of a star: And then store all the little bags in Glad ForceFlex bags, which are opaque and won't tear on you. Aren't you glad to know we're planning this all out for you?


    I think ForceFlex should give me some money for promoting their product, too.

    @engineerd invented the race car: True enough. But it's unsightly when they arrive late and sweaty, plus sometimes they get lost or forget and wander off, and then you have to go round them up. It's hard enough explaining how they have to take turns in the front seat.

    Wow, early start for the ePRS (patent pending):


    Rinspeed announces the Fiat 500 E2" -- a car with two power level -- and Megan Fox -- round, small boobies; cuddly; eyes to fall in love with; and a sexy behind.


    The Rinspeed Fiat 500 E2" concept is based on the Fiat 500 Abarth edition and marks Rinspeed's embracement of green philosophies. Equipped with both a 60 hp "Commuting" mode, suitable for crowded European cities, and a 160 hp "Highway" mode, suitable for hoonage, the Rinspeed Fiat 500 E2" can consume as little at 4 liters of evil dinosaur fuel per 100 km (59 mpg for us 'Mericans) in Italian Pest mode or 7 liters/100 km (33.6 mpg) in Pest on Steroids mode.


    A Sport button labeled "E2" controls the switch from anemic to full power.


    We then make a bunch of comments about how we need to use resources responsibly without destroying driving fun to make sure Greenpeace will consider us for some sort of award.

    Maybe "round, small and cuddly, eyes to fall in love with, a sexy behind" was refering to the female in the picture.
