I was browsing Flickr today and I noticed pictures of this odd looking car popping up in photo streams of various users:
Apparently there is a website devoted to this car. It’s creator the H-Wing and designed it circa 00. It’s been on the SW convention circuit ever since then and was featured in Wired and Screen Savers. So by internet standards this is ancient. But, if you check the Flickr pics I posted here you will notice that they were all posted in 06 so I guess I’m not the only person that didn’t know about it.

I remember seeing this on “The Screen Savers” back when Leo Laporte was still on the show (or it was the first time i watched since he left.. I just remember thinking about leo)
Very cool to be reminded of.
This cropped up a few days ago on one of those “here’s a picture, click on the picture to see another picture” type of sites – I got so sick of seeing this car (there were a ton of photos of it in a row) that I just left and went elsewhere
