It does look better lowered and on better wheels, but thats not the point, I don't expect to spend £54k on something to then have to modify it to make it look better! This is such a shame.... I was really hoping this would be a contender!
Have you seen the standard wheels on a Cayman S? Bland, dated, and nowhere near worthy of a sports car that is also ~£54k. You very rarely see them on standard rims, everyone ponies up for the optional ones. It's basically the same thing.ZX10R NIN said:
Most of those 900 nags look to have been turned into glue before that video was shot. The bodywork above the top of the arches is too tall and vertical, it makes the wheels look small and the car look, dare I say, dumpy.
Photos from the front make me think of an overweight Mk1 Audi TT.
If someone could coachwork slightly flatter front and rear wings then it might redeem the shape a little. I also think the headlights are too big and too high set.

I really wanted to like this, and based on the ‘racing’ livered pre-launch versions and the red one posted above, had high hopes. I know this is based just on these photos, but in either colour and from any angle it just looks heavy with lines that don’t flow ... and at the money they want I’ll go back to an F-Type again ...

Saw Shmee150 video on the Supra, re badged Z4, even down to the switchgear and iDrive controller.
I'd imagine a bespoke Toyota interior would add considerably to the cost with little gain. Much as the 124/MX-5 or GT86/BRZ, by sharing interior components the cost comes down for both partners.had ham said:
Repulsive looking thing.
What on earth is going on with Japanese car styling at the moment? It's gone mental. The Civic, the new Prius, that Toyota urban crossover coupe hybrid thing, the entire Lexus range and now this.To my eyes they are a cacophony of swoops, slots, lumps, bumps, extrusions, flaps and all manner of strange bits of glued-on plastic.
Ahm oot.
