F400 Carving. the outside wheels will tilt during cornering. it's a concept car.

If i'm not mistaken, it pulled 1.4G on the skidpad!

"Outside wheels" ??? Aren't all wheels are on the outside? Unless there are some "inside wheels" hahahah. Frank what have you been smoking?? jk

So tilting as in cambering while cornering? Thats sweet....

I knew its gotta be a concept...it is just not practical enough to be made in production. But since MB is coming out with all that A/B/R and even the V class...I just cant tell what they will do next.....I dont like either of the new classes. I know my next car is def not a MB for sure.

I love the F400. Its just so in your face. I'd love to have a car like that. Take this car, tone down the front end fender flares, blow out the lower fenders so the wheels are back inside the body, stretch it, and add a fast back roofline. Now that would be my dream replacement for the Coupe!

Photoshoppers! Ive got a project for you :naughty:

Hahaahhahaha ....indeed

Outland May 2, 2005 12:22 AM

I think the SL65 would lose its ass in the twisties against a car that can camber its wheels. Not to mention that the SL is already a pretty fat car.

vraa May 2, 2005 12:23 AM

yeah, but this F400 looks disgusting.
