I can definitely say that I am unreasonably excited for the LA Auto Show 2010 Design Challenge. The LA Auto Show's Design challenge pushes manufacturers to the limits of their imagination each year and always creates some incredibly cool concept cars.
Japanese and German manufacturers have been invited to participate in the LA Auto Show 2010 Design Challenge, which is focusing on eco-friendly cars that weigh in at 1,000 pounds or less. The cars must be environmentally friendly, seat four, and look stylish. Needless to say, these requirements have led to some pretty crazy cars. If you can't wait until the show you can check out a few early entrants in the gallery above.
