Summary

Description
English: "The 1954 Mercury XM-800 was conceived by Mercury's Pre Production Studio, Headed by John Najjar with assistance from Elwood Engle, and built by Creative Industries in Detroit. First shown to the public at the 1954 Detroit Auto Show, the futuristic XM-800 was promoted at various shows that year, also appearing in the 1954 movie, "Woman's World", and as a small model found in boxes of Post Grape Nuts Flakes. It was donated to the University of Michigan in 1957, later auctioned off to a private citizen, ultimately landing in the hands of famous concept car collector Joe Bortz in 1987. Under Bortz's ownership it became a drivable car, then sold in 2008 to current owner Richard H. Driehaus, who had it restored to its original glory" From the official program to the Eyes on Design.
