As an aside, is anyone as annoyed as I am by their insistence on all-lowercase for everything except headers on this site? It's stupid yet utterly infuriating, and makes it harder for me to focus on reading the text, for whatever reason. As one of my coworkers said after showing them the Mopet dog scooter thing, "I love the idea but the site design alone is enough to guarantee I never buy it", until I sent them the actual Mopet site.
I'm more annoyed about a site that is, ostensibly, for designers spamming up your page-view with so many ads and light boxes that your actual view of the content must be read through a tiny...

At a glance I suspect this hasn't been designed with the full suite of safety regulations in mind. I would be very impressed if the dash on that pony was able to accommodate airbags, for example....

And the hard backs on the seating in the Grandeur would potentialy be a smashed face in the event of a front impact collision.

This is gorgeous, I wish car manufacturers would try and actually manufacture some of these concept-car-esque designs for general availability.
