Kadeg Boucher designed this race car-inspired grass cutting machine. Only a concept at this point, the French designer's work can be seen in high resolution at CG Society. The steering wheel has an LCD gauge display (of what, I'm not sure; gas levels, the amount of time spent mowing, tire pressure?). With the attention this baby is sure to get, I'm sure lawn mower companies will spruce their versions up a little.
