And y'all thought the guys with RGB lights in their PCs were bad.

Well, now they're gonna do that to their cars and put em on the fucking road.

Source: I've actually seen one with lights dancing around the edges of the front windshield, windows, and back windshield. Fucking distracting shit, shouldn't be road legal. I don't exactly live in the biggest or most wild of cities, so if that shit is driving around here, it's elsewhere, too.

It’s a concept car. Concept cars are always weird. There is a bunch of stuff on this car that isn’t even street legal in many countries.

When concepts get translated into production, almost all of them become significantly more conservative and get stripped down to become more affordable, and have their designs altered to conform to regulations.

This is intended to be a marketing tool, that’s it. If these things went into production now, they’d be $100k cars that you couldn’t even register.
