I Don’t Get It but I Like It
Honda just released images and video showing two new concept cars called "0" (Zero). The video is … something. It's very future weird - big floating balls of glowing liquid, a guy floating above water wearing all black (he is - of course - beautiful), random words about technology being more human or something. I dunno, if I was 15 I'd probably think it was rad. Anyway, what struck me was the design of one of the two cars shown reminds me of the "Star Car" from The Last Starfighter, one of my favorite movies from 1984.
It's not exactly the same, it's more like a streamlined blob version of the Star Car, but still - they look similar, right? And I am here for it. Honda, if I can afford a new car when this is available, you can have my money. If it has a similar interior and can also fly through space, I will buy two.
Hopefully this will buck the trend of concept cars staying concepts forever. I'm not gonna hold my breath though.
