I agree; a bit busy, but still pretty striking. I’m not a fan of those wheels; they look as if they’re made of glass. One pothole away from a AAA service call.

I wish more brands would take the kind of risks that Citroen does. Admittedly, some brands can only push so far so fast based on their cachet or their heritage. Still, the only way car design makes the next leap forward is if someone sticks their neck out and tries something wild. Citroen should be saluted for leading the way in this regard.

Comment on Why Alfa Romeo Should Give F1 Another Shot by Jason White

An all-Fiat team would be intriguing, but that would create problems of a different kind; the Tifosi would be outraged, and rightly so.

I entirely agree that all great marques should be present at F1. However, Who would the Fiat empire favour in such case ? Ferrari or Alfa.
My preference would be to scrap both and have a representation in F1 under the name
FIAT.

Wow. Mercedes is really making that upright shark nose work. It adds a degree of formality to the front end, but it doesn’t clash with the overall forms. That’s a tough line to walk.

Comment on The Cars of Caprica by KiTech

To be honest, after watching BSG and loving it, the spin-off seems dreadful and cheesy. And to be fair – it was in BSG that they first introduced the old cars (for example the DS parked in the underground parking lot on occupied Caprica) ; )
But I definitely agree, that a Torpedo should be used! : )

I have no idea how they can top this, but you can bet they will.
