Clearly, this guy Luigi is just a good stylist. And trust me, no one wants to have stylists driving the vision of something which carries people around.

I've built some versions of the lifting body flying aircraft models going back over 30 years ago. I'll admit they sank like rocks. However given what I know now I could get some of my ideas off the ground.
My clay car models are rough, but I could hire someone to turn them into fibeglass for a wind tunnel. That's kind of the fine line where the Industrial Designer or Stylist starts to battle the engineers and marketing people.
Just business as usual.
