Giving the car half the attention might be challenge as I think given the proper screen driving time the Concept_One might steal all the attention! While I do think the car should be driven in some fashion on screen, even if it sat in Stark's garage it would still create a buzz. People would start to wonder what it is and ask about it. Never-the-less, a proper venue would be some sort of action sequence where the Concept_One could strut it's stuff rather than a simple product placement like the BMW Z3 in Goldeneye or i8 in MI:4.

How about deposits from customers, the way Tesla does it? You've got the working prototype to prove it exists and works, that alone should get some of those who can afford it to hand over some cash. I'd buy one but it's probably not legal here with no rear window, so that's holding me back

You need to bring this beautiful machine to the salt flats and let it all out. I would love to see how fast it can really go.

Ugh, I just saw a link to information about the car in a forum on Hardocp.com and some of the troglodytes are busy bashing electric vehicles with the usual FUD. I tried to correct some of the nonsense and stick up for it.

This goes right to the comments:

You would think at least the computer geek crowds would appreciate things like this.

I read the comments and I felt like I feel when I talk to my friends about this new electric car. There's nothing to do with someone who thinks that only the ICE car deserve to exist and to be showed. I really hate the square-mindedpeople... So after the first two comments I closed the page...

Yes, well, there's one aspect of global warming that's inevitable...the ICE age is coming to an end. They can deny all they want for now, but 50 years from now it will be much more difficult politically, financially, and socially to own an ICE.
