Peugot Design Contest Entrant Looks Like A Roller Massager

— April 29, 2009 — Autos
This car design was certainly inspired by the roller massager from Ronco. The concept car by Wesley Saikawa won second place in the Peugot Design Contest, so I should probably knock off the jokes about it being a knock off of an infomercial product. Saikawa certainly is entitled to his inspirations, and if the Peugot Design Contest judges don’t know a car from a muscle relaxer, then that’s not my problem.
