C1000 Pics from Auto Show - Take a Look

I know this isnt exactly on topic, but I though people might want to see them. This is one of two ever built, so its probably pretty rare to see one. Technically this a "C" so please dont move it!

It was at the Atlanta auto show. Surprising, that show is usually pretty weak, but it was actually decent this year.

do you need a pilots license to drive? Image going to work, you would never get there, just keep driving.

Looks like they should be running this sucker at LeMans.

Reminds me of the late 80s Sauber C9 Mercedes - which was also a turbocharged V8. Although the exhaust should exit higher up (from the red, NSX-like area) to maximize downforce.

Dont seem like theres a cup-holder. ..but then again, it's probably in some hidden compartment like our c-classes.
