They will NEVER build it as shown or even anywhere even close. Pure BS concept eye candy, just like the Cadillac Elmirage.

Like Couture fashion shows, utterly pointless.

I saw it on an MB website. The grille looks very Buickish.

Exelero? That car was an abomination.
This car is not my cup of tea but nothing like the comic book car.
It's a concept car. Nobody expects them to be build anyway and over the top design is not unknown in concept cars.

Strangely enough, I find the side view appealing in a very 1930's Mercedes kind of way.

Technically, this car is a pure EV. with 750hp and a (500km) 300+ mile range. 155mph max speed, sub 4 sec. to 60 and a 5 minute quick charge that gets you 60 miles far. Charging is inductive or wired.

I'm actually a fashion designer and can back this statement up.

I'll never understand how (in a bad economy or good) and why Fashion designers make a collection for the runway - knowing it has to all be redone for retail and commercial purposes.

Then they go and say how difficult times are - having hard times paying fabric and factory vendors, etc.

Isn't that all Couture. Last year we bought a runway dress for my wife and the change was very minimal, in the neckline.
