Think the work on the 3R Hybrid was for nothing?

I'd love to do a wrap like that for my rusty pick-up truck in lieu of zebra stripes.

looks like a teenage girls mod/punk/goth handbag

Maybe "Porsche Design" was sicked on the the non functional design elements of this car. Anyone ever go in to a 'Porsche Design" store lately?

its definitely harder to drive a race car after throwing up inside your helmet. The competition will be busy swapping helmets and not just tires

The competition won't be digitizing the body and figuring out the aerodynamics. i wonder how much of it is in final form.

pointing out the obvious??

it just looks funny and it made me dizzy and nauseous to look at it so i felt it was due a response for my own laugh-

I'm sure it will look better in some proper livery. Except for those bug eyes.....Maybe some big hipster glasses???

Looks like a sharpie car. That and the headlights just look weird.

Probably will be hybrid like the Toyota TS030.

Nah, just never sure what people know or don't know. (Hint, green type denotes snark or sarcasm or jocularity on this BBS.)
