I see you're not familiar with Federal Code Title 49 Subtitle B Chapter V Part 571. In layman's terms that's Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards which regulate among other vehicle specifications the type, location, and angle of projection of headlamps, taillights, and especially High Mounted Stop Lights (the center brake lights on vehicles).

Personally I hope Ive models it after the Jaguar E-Type, making it beautiful within the bounds of federal restrictions and regulations, of course.

Concept cars generally ignore regulations, just a fun thought exercise :)
I'm guessing that its charger cord would have a huge head at the plug end to block any adjacent outlets.

And, it would be ungrounded.

haha, indeed. The wire would fray in 2 months too.
Why on earth would anyone make a unibody car? Who wants to replace the entire car body for a ding in the door?
Looks like a shoe of some sort. Like a clog or croc.
haha, coming to think of it...
