Wow!
I tried to see half-shafts amongst the front suspension, but didn't. It is AWD? Looks like an automatic trans shifter, but it also looks like two levers side-by-side, like throttles on a twin engine aircraft. Curiouser and curiouser... Do you know any more about it?

Like the purple finish, too!

Thanks for posting!

HA! My sentiments exactly, Marcus! :lol:

Modernbeat, that's cool, I was just curious. I'll do some searching.
