new benz
 
The new Benz - Very different....really different!...SCROLL DOWN..

....and now for the 'really different' part :
No Steering wheel - Can you drive with a joystick?

No foot pedals either~!

I bet the kids and grandkids probably can.

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

Kind of scary isn't it???


edit;
never mind i cant get the photos to link
looks like a Saturn from the outside and a Jetsons space-car on the inside

I am all for a video game type layout, but, that interior is piss poor. Terrible layout and looks very uncomfortable. It kind of looks like stuff was just thrown in there without much thought.

Its obvious that was not designed by guys that play video games.

Hey, those dual purpose Cuisinart wheels are a nice addition too. Not only will it get you to the grocery story, but you can shred and dice to your heart's content when you return!!

I believe that was a concept car that was on the car show circuit back in 1996 (as in 10 years ago) or something...

The joystick design looks cool....as long as it does not come with a "fire" button.
