HRH Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Neat car, good theory, still ugly as fuck. But if it goes fast with less fuel, they have a point. Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 Looks like it shoulda been called the Nissan DildoWing :rofl: 2 Quote Link to comment
danfiveten Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 To me the side shot says batmobile ? Seriously i think it looks like the 90's batmobile from the sides. Quote Link to comment
NSRz32 Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 Its definitely unique (not always a good thing). I'll hold my judgement until I see how it performs on a race track as that's really all that matters. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 A lot of talk. So they expect to sell these to people like a DD or is this like the shit that super models wear? You know clothing that no sane person would buy let alone wear. Shows that are just an 'atta boy' to designers. That's what this looks like to me. Nissan has some left over R&R money and says to the designers knock yourself out and have fun building some ridiculous POS. I could have told them that reducing the weight, wind resistance and weight will make it faster, handle better and get better mileage. At least the other vehicles there will actually look like a car. Call me if it ever makes it to France. Quote Link to comment
Laecaon Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 Eh, I think this is for LeMans racing, if it follows the regulations, and outperforms with a smaller motor, I say awesome! I thought function over form was a good thing... 1 Quote Link to comment
Jesse C. Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 Dan Gurney is involved in this and he plays to win. Look him up if you do not know who he is. Really. Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 Dan Guney raced for Ford back in the day. Maybe even in the Ford GT at LeMans in '64?? (not too sure) A friend had a '67? Cougar XR7 G and the talk was this was a commemerative model and the G was for Gurney. Quote Link to comment
