There's nothing wrong with that car. It's a promotional tool and it served it's purpose.



Now if a guy built that car just to show it he'd be a flaming homosexual.

Yeah they build a new one every year as far as I know. They need to mix it up with something different though.

Alpine's old car.

I've seen that car in person. Pretty whack if you ask me. But it was built soley to be an eye catching promotional shindig, and they definitely accomplished their goal.

That thing is at least a year old.

I think it's pretty cool for what it is. It's a show car, not a car to be driven on the street. Now if somebody did that with the intention to be the most uber mother fucker on the street...then it's rice / stupid.

IMO absolutely nothing wrong with that car considering it has a purpose and serves it well. What purpose do altezzas and 3 foot wings serve?

don't hate.... those alpine builders have mad skill. I approve... gets the job done. Rather... Got the job done... a long ass time ago.

I thought their mini was kinda cool. They thought way outside of the box on that one.

Yeah that was there show car from a couple of years ago. They did a MB suv thingy with another center mounted front seat I think and some weird contraction that the seat slid in and out on a rail. THey showwed the build up of it on Rides.
