Toyota's I-Unit

Yep, I would have to be a "unit" to be driving one.

See "slideshows"

http://news.yahoo.com/

or at the bottom

Toyota Motor Corp. (news - web sites)'s new concept vehicle i-unit is driven in during its unveiling performance in Tokyo Friday, Dec. 3, 2004. The one-seater i-unit that resembled a wheelchair, designed to help people get around, will be displayed at an exposition in Aichi, central Japan, next year. (AP Photo/Shuji Kajiyama)

What a minute.................there are 13 pictures, some of them are pretty cool creations. Check it out.

It's funny how Robotech seemed like something that was only possible in some alternate universe in the mid 1980s....

Sign me up for a couple with armor, a chain gun, and a hot Japanese pop star.

The picture above looks like a "sex chair" or something. I really like the ATV looking one which seats you in a reclined position. Where does the car start and the driver end? Man (Woman) as Machine, love it.

That thing looks like it came from the movie "Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Sex But Were Afraid To Ask" by Woody Allen. I think he called it the "Orgasmatron" or something like that...
