The 1938 Phantom Corsair cost ketchup heir Rust Heinze $24,000 to build - that’s $300,000 today - and he hoped to sell production versions for half that price. Sadly, Heinz passed away shortly after this single prototype was made and his supercar dreams died along with him. As for the Phantom Corsair, its futuristic design was a huge influence on the designers of the day and many of its features would find their way onto production cars decades later.

Another view of this German bullpup bolt-action sniper rifle. Not too much data on this rifle due to it’s rarity and high cost. Supposedly a very accurate, sub-MOA rifle. Very futuristic design, if I had to choose between this or the PSG-1 it would be pretty damn hard to pick. I’d probably give the PSG-1 an edge for parts availability though.
Very futuristic or “robot animation” like Aoyama School of Design Drawing ロボットアニメ風な青山製図専門学校のデザインが凄い!画像→
Ruger LCR .357 Magnum (A small, lightweight and easy to conceal revolver with a big punch. Has a somewhat futuristic look to with the design of the frame and lines.)

1962 Ferrari 250 GT Bertone Coupé
This is, evidently, a one off re bodied Ferrari. Giugiaro was responsible for the design. Bertone, the coach work
A home theater PC with a softer side? Design Hara’s new “green” computer HTPC houses a mini-ITX board in what can only be described as a beautiful wood case. Coming in cypress wood and rose wood flavors, the computers don’t seem to available for sale just yet, but when they do become available they should offer up a nice smattering of specs like Core 2 Duo or Quad processors, 4GB of RAM, 1TB hard drives and Blu-ray drives.

“こないだの台風のとき、多くの人が電車が止まって駅で立ち往生してたけど、電車を止めざるを得ないほどの台風が来てるのに、それでも会社へ行かなければ仕事をしなければって思い込んでる人が実に多いことがあらためて浮き彫りになった。ちょっと考えればわかることだが、会社へ行く途中に台風の被害で死ぬ可能性だって十分にあったのだ。本当にそれは命に代えてもやらなければならない仕事だったのか。そんなのはごく一部の、人々の安全を守る側の人くらいだろう。電車が止まって駅員に怒ってた人もいたらしい。だが本来怒りを向けるべき相手は、そんな強い台風が来る日に命がけで出社しろという会社ではないのか。”
