+1. Cool in concept. I'd never want one. There are soo many options, buy a car you like, not one w/ a sheet body panel. Imagine how much it must weight to have all those moving parts underneith!

i think its pretty slick, it's a concept i doubt anything like this will be in production anytime soon. i'd rock the hell out of it though if i got chance.

eliteZ - it even with the moving parts it probably doesn't weigh much all you need to change the shape of cloth is a few stiff wires and little motors to move them.

Yeah I doubt the cloth body is any heavier than an aluminum or plastic body would be.
