The rear view looks kind of restricted but overall I like it

I like it as well, though there are some details like all the holes under the nose, and the color choice IS unfortunate. Also the tail lights at the wrong end

I like that it's a pure Show Car, with no pretense of manufacture. A car show gets pretty boring when everything is just a thinly disguised production model. Or those styling models that show a companies Bold New Language, that dies when their designer gets booted or lured away. (Ref. Ford, BMW, VW, J.Mays, Freeman, Callum, etc.)

Looks a bit like an Avant-Time been run over and flattened from this angle. Prefer the original, or another special car like the Maserati Boomerang

The windscreen ruins it. But there again, the windscreen treatmenmt of 95% of (sports)cars is wrong anyway. Only al la Stratos looks correct (good) to me.

I like the front and side but the ski slope on the back is neither practical nor stylish.

It looks like the 1960's vision of what a future car in 2000 will look like!

I loved the original Stratos Zero, probably because it was in the Michael Jackson Moonwalker film back in the late 80's!
The Baby Dangler himself turned into this silver wedge.

I read that one of the replicas from the Moonwalker film was turned into a drivable car. Use Lancia parts. Not very practical as the windscreen is the door and no wipers! Would love to see it and sit in it!

Micheal Jackson had good taste in cars.

Look at the new design, wonder how you get side.I agree the new design is very now, both good and bad.

Bertone cars also appeared in Blade Runner, maybe they made this for the remake or Prometheus, currently filming in Ice land with Ridley Scott and Sigourney Weaver. Personally it looks cool and is better than 95% of the cars on the roads today.

I'd heard that at least 2 cars were made "drivable", but not road legal or compliant for any country.
In all fairness, I doubt Michael Jackson had that much say in what cars went into the film. That would have been down to film casting crew or props people i guess.
I cant imagine Jackson being a Pistonhead and knowing of this cars existence in the 80's at all.
