those are "too futuristic looking". By the time our fashion and design gets to that point we would have the technology to make something better, smaller, more efficient, etc. There's just no point into designing something like that.

Same goes to the fashion industry with their crazy outfits they come up with. Those things are hideous and overly priced (usually 1 of a kind).

Funny you should mention this as I was just reading about futuristic vehicles in my local paper this morning, although maybe our model wasn't so advanced...

Uh, these will be pointless unless they can travel as fast as a normal car and they're relatively cheap too. I'm sure milage would be insane if there even is a gas tank, and tiny storage is a plus too, now all they gotta do is figure out how tp not make them look like foil monsters.


and wtf is this?!

well, i highly doubt they will use them for reproduction sales. More than likely, the whole idea is a research and development project.
