I want one.... and I aint talking about the hat! A few years ago Citroen 
released in Europe a car with "Active Suspension" which had the capability, if 
Citroen has so wished, to lean INTO corners.... imagine that setup combined 
with the active camber and silly hats!

Sure, they claim, "Active camber control boosts the research vehicle's 
maximum lateral acceleration to 1.28 g, meaning that the concept study 
outperforms current sports cars by some 28 percent."  The bad news is that 
it looks 56% stupider.

And forget the "active hydropneumatic system that optimises the suspension 
and shock absorption"...  Where can I get one of those little hats!  Holy 
hockey helmets, Batman!  Do you think they were his idea or hers?
