Mercedes-Benz - makers of some very nice looking cars - were inspired to design this after looking at a very ugly fish. Or maybe in an alter state after getting food poisoning at a sushi restaurant after eating one. I'm actually serious. Read the statement below from cardesignnews.com:
"The Bionic showcases the potential of bionics for automobile development, and is inspired by the boxfish. In DaimlerChrysler's words: 'Despite its boxy, cube-shaped body, this tropical fish is in fact outstandingly streamlined and therefore represents an aerodynamic ideal'."
