Sbarro continues to amaze. Anyone see this "Autobau" concept car?

I was originally going to post this as I had (incorrectly) assumed the car had Mercedes power.  As I dug deeper I discovered that this model is Ferrari powered.

Introduced at the Geneva Auto Show in 2010, I can only say one thing for it - it is certainly true to the Sbarro legacy.

I imagine if a person wanted it bad enough, Sbarro would happily put MB power in one for you.  As history demonstrates, it would seem pretty much a given that Sbarro has no ethical boundaries - they'll cheerfully make a pig's ear out of any purse you present to them.  Can anyone think of anyone, anywhere, that has done more to heap shame onto innocent luxury vehicles?

Let's see.

I have to warn everybody: What has been seen, cannot be unseen, LOL (look at your own risk!):



















Still interested?


















OK, if you insist...




Tasteful presentation!

The mullet wearing chap is the creator of this abomination:

Now I know! It's Goldmember!


Worry not! It may still be available for sale:

aaaawwww ...  I think it's cute that he finally got to build his dream car from when he was ten years old.

Which abomination, the one to his left with two legs, or the one with 4 wheels he's standing in front of???

My retinas are permanently scarred.

I have a feeling that if he went suddenly blind that things wouldn't get any worse if he continued to work in his chosen field of "expertise"...

That red SLS seriously looks like a hotwheels creation.

The Sbarro looks like a spaceship and if the sides were a little different it could've been ok.  But as it is ATM; Oh my eyes!!!   :o :'( ???

Clearly the 'creator' of the red and gold thing has no clue about good taste.  Unfortunately this mindset has spread to other things in world; Blah, eek and yuk!!!

The photo of the two people posing is a curious example of where 3 ugly things go together really well.

That is pushing the limits of bad taste! :o

It's a shame there's no "spewing" emoticon, haha.

At least, indeed, Sbarro has a theme of designing utterly bizarre looking vehicles.
