Not that impressive at all and neither are the staff that's trying to sell them.  I talked with other people that had put down an deposit for one and generally, the view was "its ok, but not worth $25-40K"  Simple questinos like "where's the spare" were unanswered.  I got my deposit back instead of waiting for one that "might" be built in 2010.  The original designer and engineered were fired by the venture capitalists that own the company.  A Detroit auto "expert" was hired to run it (add into the ground).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Steve]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 20th 2010 2:46PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mercedes-Benz Archimed Concept from Iran]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/12/21/mercedes-benz-archimed-concept-from-iran/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/12/21/mercedes-benz-archimed-concept-from-iran/</guid><description><![CDATA[I am loving that Dr.Z and Iran have formed a human bond,,, Keep up the good work Dr.Z..
