Winged Smart Car spy shots create a mysterious confrontation

When Los Angeles photographer Steve Devol went out a week ago to shoot some early morning shots of the Frank Gehry-designed Walt Disney Hall, he found a film crew had the same idea to use the hall as a backdrop. But when Devol started taking his own pictures, he claims the crew and its security guards tried to stop him from shooting from public property. In response, Devol posted his photos to Flickr -- including this shot of what looks like a winged Smart car concept.If I had to guess, I'd venture that the crew and the car have something to do with the upcoming Los Angeles Auto Show in a few weeks. Smart has been known to show off wild concepts, and this version of the Smart ForTwo looks odd beyond just the bizarro tail wings; it could be some take on the Smart electric car.
