I can't completely hate on it since it does show some imagination. But on the other hand, isn't there a solar powered car which is shaped just like this?

+1 Too many people don't read the whole post or source, the styling exercise could have just as easily had a BMW/MB/GM logo on the hood. I see the same on other sites, particularly Autospies. It's an interesting styling exercise and would make for a crowd draw if someone actually built a show car.
