Well yea, The black pearl is VERY HOTT. You have to see it in person like I have. Ours really catches the eye, and the black pearl is just really slick and smooth,.. sorta reminds me of the batmobile-sorta-slick

Typically swerve drive refers to normal wheels that are mounted so they can be rotated (like controlled caster wheels)

Mecanum drives and kiwi drive trains as well as swerve drives are considered omni directional, or holonomic drive trains (holononomic drive typically implies that it is driver centric).
