Dude, I know. The way it leans around corners and lowers itself to travel fast (relocate the center of gravity) is amazing. Wow. I'm surprised we haven't really discussed this before.

Does this remind anyone else of all the lazy fat people in Wall-E?

I want one but since i dont even fit in most of the racing seats coming out of Japan the I'm pretty sure I would not fit in this either.

It's Toyota, they'll make it work for as many people possible.

I wonder what the aftermarket support would be like? hehe. I'm half joking but really, it could be big in the "future" tuner scene. :iono:

could you imagine if he slams on the breaks ? face plant guaranteed

I bet it's more stable than that, like the Segway I'd assume.

unless you get that version of Segway that had a bug in the gyro firmware, you end up like Dr.Evil on hi swivel chair lol

I'm not impressed, it reminds me of the Segway. I'd rather have this.

Yes, but I think the real question is, when will NST come out with a pulley set? :)

But I must say though, it is a pretty cool chair and brought to you none other by Toyota.
