Too good to be true right?
By putting an LM sticker on your car, your not just supporting Local Motors, your supporting crowdsourcing, open source design, the environment, America, and most importantly...your own community!
Not to mention that they are made of durable vinyl and won't damage your paint even if you decide to peel it off and put it somewhere else!
The sticker pictures will be featured on our website in a rotating photo carousel!
So the real question is...have you requested one yet?
Here are some more pics in case you still need convincing :)

Interview with Sangho Kim, Designer of the Rally Fighter
Great news! Sangho will be at Local Motors headquarters this Friday, July 10th for our monthly Burgers, Cars & Welding event. This event gets better and better. We hope you will join us if you are able; just RSVP here.
Interview with Sangho Kim,
Designer of the Rally Fighter
AFC: When did you start designing cars?
SK: Actually, I started to sketch cars not too long ago. I would say about 4 years ago. I was always interested in designing something but I never believed that I could design a car.
AFC: For all car designers, it is a dream to see a car of your design driving on the roads. Now that you are very close to accomplishing this dream, what do you aim to do next?
SK: Of course, the Rally Fighter is a huge accomplishment and experience to me. The Rally Fighter is something that I will never forget, not in my life, and it is a huge asset to me. However, I won’t stop here. I will keep going forward. I'm not going to stay what I am right now. I will explore more, and I will design better cars in the future. The type of company I'm working for is not of importance to me. I will try my best to design something that everyone likes.
AFC: You were involved heavily during early Rally Fighter development and largely created the form and design language for the Rally Fighter. Has the end result met your expectations so far?
SK: Definitely! I'm more than happy to see the result of Rally Fighter. At the beginning, we experienced many difficulties and challenges. However, many of them were resolved pretty well and it ended up such a unique vehicle. I give credit to all people who commented and participated during the process. Without those people, the Rally Fighter wouldn't be able to exist! Give a big applause to them! Great work guys!
AFC: What was your experience like as you worked with the LM team to develop this concept into a reality?
SK: A concept is always difficult to bring to reality. Many issues were addressed, such as feasibility. During the process, a lot of people who had knowledge in different fields were involved and they were great help. I'm not an engineer and I don't know much about all engineering issues. I believe that great people, great knowledge, great work came together to make my concept into a reality.
AFC: Have you thought about what it will be like when you first see your Rally Fighter in person? What it will be like to see someone driving it on the road?
SK: I still cannot believe it when I see a car that I was involved in is in development. It's more than my dream. I really hope people enjoy the vehicle, and they love the Rally Fighter. I think that is the highest achievement and accomplishment that every designer dreams of. I don't know if I myself can afford to buy Rally Fighter though. (joke).
Anyways, I'm worried that I'm going to have a heart attack when I first see the Rally Fighter in person.
