No steering wheel, you drive it with a joystick. No pedals either.

Can you drive with a joystick? Your kids and grandkids probably can.

The influence of video games in our lives has really arrived, wouldn't you say?


SCARY THOUGHT THAT NOW A 7-YEAR-OLD COULD STEAL YOUR CAR

AND PROBABLY DRIVE IT BETTER THAN YOU.

That's really cool! Can you imagine the accidents that would happen.

I'd be so lost. I can't drive worth a darn in videogames.

Edit: and I'm from the Nintendo generation!

:yeahthat: Was Nintendo with the tennis game you played in slow or fast modes with the square ball? Maybe I would be more at a loss than you..... (Did I just date myself?!!!)

 

[naturestee]

LOL, that's Pong! The first Nintendo had Mario and came out in the 80's. I already knew you were older than me but now everyone else knows.

Oops.... :sofa:

But I would NOT be able to drive that thing! lol.
That looks scary to drive just from the outside...imagine sitting in it and trying!
No thanks. lol.

[MyLOVEABLES!!]

AHhhhh that is sooo cool!! i'd so buy one
eeeeexcept im not that into games and i suck so things like driving with a joy stick prob not so well...

BUUUUT

i'd still love one

inkbouce:




btw mods: i like how you added more emotions on the thingy :highfive:

Wouldn't you get one really achey arm? Why don't they put a joystick in the middle of the drivers seat?

 

[slavetoabunny]

I suppose it could be done. They fly helicopters by joystick and they have another dimension to deal with. I think the learning curve would be too high for most people though.

That car is really tricked out! I can't even imagine how I would drive that thing with a joystick and I haven't even got my permit yet! (I have drove a car before)

I love the color and the wheels! Not to crazy about the doors or the stlye of driving though.
How would you even press those other buttons while driving?!?



ETA: I love the way the trunk opens too! But your stuff would get really wet that way if it was raining outside.

 

[MyLOVEABLES!!]

is it real though?

It's a concept car. Company's make them every year for car shows. Sometimes they only make one, sometimes they make a few. The electric car used to be a concept car at one time. Usually, it's the very rich who invest in a concept car. If the companies see enough interest, though, they start producing them in larger quantities.
