Ok seriously? This whole thing about new cars trying to fit in niche markets that don't exist is getting out of hand

It's japan, I think this and like all the weirdness of anime and their car culture is the after affects of radiation and the fallout from Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
I'm sorry, that was bad taste.

Dear Acura, please ignore him. Up the dosage, and add tailfins.

Yes it is. It's their idea of autonomous car

The first is the Penn Rail Road S1 and the second is the T1. The S1 was a functional concept/prototype. The T1 went into limited (60) production. Both were plagued with design issues that caused wheel-spin along with high maintenance costs.

The T1 looks like they took a spare bow of a WW2 era submarine and turned it into a train. I'm tempted to go to the Danbury rail museum tomorrow nearby in Connecticut...and this is tempting me even more...but cold weather...

Not bad. Better looking than the last RL I've seen.
