According to the company's senior managing director Isao Yamaguchi, the car is one of five that was painstakingly put together for a car convention 10 years ago.It seems that it had flown somewhat under the radar because it wasn't until much later that photographs of it went viral online.

To create the cars, engineers first designed the model using computer software, then cut out special metal jigs using precision laser cutters to act as a supporting framework.

The metal wires were placed inside, then the jigs removed to produce the final look.
