I’m intrigued by Local Motors, a new car company that crowd sources the design of their cars and plans to build them at local micro-factories. This is the first car they’ll build:

  1. Me too! I'd love to have one of these. Cars are getting more and more similar. As a kid, i used to be able to identify the make of a car by their headlights in the dark. Now i can't even identify them in the daylight. I love the thought of crowdsourcing and micro-producing for cars. We're already doing with t-shirts (threadless), shoes (nikeID), and airplanes (Epic planes)
