And I’m sure a Chimaera with a Tuscan front end was for sale very recently.

Yes, there was a Chim with Tuscan front end that I saw at one of the PistonFest events

I remember thinking that the Chim-Tuscan was interesting, probably because TVR hadn't launched the lid-off Tuscan which IMO detracted from the Tuscan offering. A Chim-Sag IMHO would be a step too far, the agressive Sag front end needs an agressive rear to complete the image

Yes your combining both the Chims rounded curves with a more angular aggressive look. It’s the headlights that would constantly confuse me. Remember every car has its face and eyes, the Chim successfully ties in both the front and rear with its lights and smooth curved lines.

If it was me I’d go for Mk3 headlight covers tinted using very powerful bulbs.
Dark tinted the way to go biggrin
