Car 2.0 – How a community builds a car
With the global economy still on shaky ground and the auto industry taking a huge hit, I found it refreshing to find an automotive company thriving, and doing business in a completely new way. Local Motors is a custom car company best known for its Rally Fighter, the first openly developed and community created car. The Rally Fighter is the result of 35,000 designs submitted by 2,900 community members representing over 100 countries. As you can see in the below picture, the community sure put together a pretty cool looking car. To me it looks more like a mix of a fighter plane and a tank.
