it's a MIni, built by BMW, to look like a Porsche, so they call it a "Mini Ferrari" concept. What were they drinking?

I was always in awe of the shuttle and the accomplishment it was. Being hauled around on the top of a 747 was also incredibly impressive, too. It amazes me the 747 was strong and powerful enough to do that job.

Where did the 747 go? Did a shuttle go with it? NOTE: BLACK SIDE DOWN is pretty funny!
