This is not a new idea. Its been done for toys and robotic competitions when I used to be a state judge for teams. These teams could then qualify gyor national competition and every few years the international competition. Furthermore, I laid out on paper the principles of snap together, modular and public building ideas and have used social platforms to talk about it. Essentially you can custom design a car, add up the module costs and order it built. No one was doing it of course. Legacy wouldn't even dream of it. I knew who would buy Elon couldn't jump forward in time to start it. The idea exists presently mostly in certain scifi space games where players build ships as they design them. Eve Online for one. But now that casting and a modular concept has arrived at a predictable point, its being seriously considered. I first realized and predicted this about thirty years ago when I looked at all the car and plane models in my room and said to myself, "Why is this not a viable concept for real transportation?". My father and friends thought it was silly. The idea of self supporting units melded together easily and premade using CAD and 3D printing, using software like decades old plug and play software to network themselves into a cohesive whole. It was beyond reason, except to me. It's also how roads should work to be quicky mapped to terrain, then designed, pre built and delivered on site for connection. Also buildings, airplanes, cities, housing, schools or anything. Just turn on the communication and they'll identify themselves, run diagnostics and your good to go. Totally feasible and mostly technologically ready. We just always lack imagination and will power.
IF you can actually build out to a full limo
THEN the front and rear axle assemblies are going to be grotesquely overbuilt for a 2dr compact
This concept is been around for many many years. GM had a single base platform concept back in the early 80s
