EDIT: Wait, stop everything! I have something to say, mates:
I try to spread my posts amongst a smorgasbord of communities I find worthy of supporting, but I can tell you frankly, if the following StarTrek TOS movie post is valued so little, then to me, this community is worth the same as that one.
It’s a fun movie scene, or do you disagree?

Well… actually:
The Orbit was a further refinement of previous Italdesign concepts such as the Alfa Romeo New York Taxi (1976), Lancia Megagamma (1978), Capsula (1982) and Together (1984). The concept was built on a Volkswagen Golf Mk2 platform, specifically the new “Syncro.” The goal was to produce a car around 4m in length. The concept was 15cm taller than the existing Volkswagen Golf and featured a large amount of glass.
The Orbit would be developed further into the Italdesign Machimoto, shown the same year. --WP

This shot is certainly from one of the testing phases. I personally find it hilarious:
