re: World's First 3D Printed Car

They basically printed a less durable go-cart. If I was going to spend the money and invest in building cars I would have upgraded everything and reached out to many more people for advice. They have to redo everything if they want to build a commercial grade vehicle. If they knew they had the technology to build it why settle for that.
I'm not that impressed. They just replicated something that was created with in the 1800's just a different build process and material.

No matter how insignificant you may think it may be, it was really cool to watch it be printed and come to life. Attended the convention over the weekend, absolutely amazing show.

It's not that. They just don't have the patents and they apparently can't afford to lease or buy the good stuff needed to print with better quality in greater detail and with better materials.
These guys are well known in the auto industry, and just built a huge service center near Detroit.

But, as a stockholder, I'm somewhat biased.
