It has an interesting i-Robot look to it but I couldn't see myself driving it. You have to give them credit for thinking outside the box though.

First Zen rule for Rinspeed in proverb form: "only a fool tries to improve the perfect shape of Nature in a river rock."

I like the first line: "Designer Frank Rinderknecht has been freebasing the styling clay again."

I like the headlights. That's how the 997 headlights should have looked, with a little more flair to them like the CGT's.

It'll be interesting to see if they use that roof technology anywhere. It looks like it could have potential. I was reading that both divisions of Bayer got together offering free Aspirin in case the whole thing gives you a headache
