Automotive Concept By John Villarreal

"Automotive Concept from John Villarreal is an attempt to envision where automotive design might go in the future. As the car design is evolving with each passing day, the designer thinks supercars would get even more visceral and engaging. As a result, Automotive Concept is bold and its shape communicates stability."

Does that mean the following questions (part of the original puzzle question!) are unanswerable then?:

Yes - it's really easy to say 0-60 in half a second and 500 mph max speed when you don't have to build the car...!

Well.. if you ask the questions you should really hold out for the answers (as you've found out to your cost!) - that is really what AutoPuzzles is all about!

Alot of views, few responses, forgive me if I awarded a point for the effort made & well..the puzzle being solved. I am pretty much of the view, that the designer of this vehicle Knows what he's doing. Lots & lots of research & vehicle development, to be gleaned from  automotive history. He probably knows a thing or two about the laws of physics, probably has done some research & development as well. I am not going to take any stock in autopuzzler-carnut, knowing more than the designer of this vehicle. ::)

Yes, I'm sure he knows a very deal more than I do, but then so do most people...
I was really only being sarcastic - the drawing board and the test track are two entirely different places, as many an optimist who's said he's going to build the world's fastest/most accellerative/most frugal etc etc car has found out.
