What an uncreative name. Lemme guess...C = Covini, 6 = 6, W = Wheels.

I've seen pics of the prototype before...or at least something very similar. I still say they could have named it better, but I don't see any practical reason for making a 6 wheeled car. It's like the Spinal Tap approach to exotic car building. Then again, exotics and practicality make odd bedfellows.

Seen it. That thing is awesome.. pretty crazy. I don't know if I like it or hate it because it is so odd. lol. I would like to take it and drive it first. I bet it handles well, but its just so weird looking. heh.
