Hello,

Here's a car I have not seen before now: Mike Vetter's ETV (Extra-Terrestrial Vehicle):

Obviously, the lack of ground clearance would have to be addressed. And the rear end doesn't look as aero as it might seem at first.

Is it just me, or does that car look like a shoe?

Yeah, that rear end is pretty lousy. Looks like what a person who doesn't know much about aero would design freehand to be aerodynamic.

Oooo. Must be an early "Palomar" prototype.
Too bad my wife would rip the front bumper off the first time she took it to the Gelson's supermarket parking lot.

Just your wife? More like most people.

This vehicle looks cool, but I think a speed bump would jack the s*** out of this thing, and those aren't so easy to avoid.
