Ha good luck getting that thing to move anywhere with passengers.
They also destroyed the idea of the RX-7, it was a lightweight nimble sports car with a good amount of HP. Limousines are not nimble.
Why is there one image with windows and the rest don't have windows...

Are limos SUPPOSED to be nimble?
If they WERE, they wouldn't be LIMOS.

Sometimes the addage "Because it was there..." just doesn't hold true!

The roof appears to sag a bit and that spoiler is even more wrong on a limo. The 'cockpit' would make you think this is designed for the driver, not the passengers.

What a stupid idea. It compromises all the good things of sports cars and limos, then combines the useless crap that's leftover.

That's just too weird. I have a friend with a 93 RX7 and that is the last thing he would do to it.
