IMO, this article should not exist. It completely fails any reasonable test of notability. An automobile of such questionable functionality and engineering that it sold zero, nada, none, (not even one vehicle) ranks it with the efforts of backyard mechanics who cobble together one-off vehicles for the sheer novelty of it. If, in the interest of completeness, one should want to make mention of such a monstrosity, one should do so in proper context: in an article with other like experimental and novelty vehicles that incite laughter from a public enamored with autos in general and finger-pointing and "what's that?" questions from small children.
