New TVR still under wraps!

[phazed]

Les’s original gets my vote every time. Much cleaner lines that will stand the test of time.

People already don’t like it. Not sure how it’s going to stand the test of time, it’ll be lucky to stand the test of next year,

that looks really st, just a pastiche of thepast designs.. the new Griffith as is, is perfect as far as I am concerned, looks modern

[RichB]

Guys, that's not my picture, I just turned the image round so that people could see it! Not saying I like it but I don't like the front of the new Griff much either too bland, too generic, dated already.

(Someone posted it from an iPhone and it was upside down. )

At least those sketches look TVR like. They’ve got a purposeful look that the new thing is missing. Maybe the new car will look better with a number plate covering the funny face.

Needs something done to it though. Because it looks dull, like a Mazda or a Toyota not a TVR or any £90,000 car.

Is it getting changed or are they definitely going ahead with the fish face?

TVR Griffishface it'll be, i guess

But honestly, check out Shmee's new video, it looks way less fishy in flesh (and in motion) and the front from the side is totally badass (check video around 3:40).

Mackerel alert...



And dear god stop that imbecilic guy from reviewing the thing with all those stupid facial expressions. It’s not helping. I want to punch the screen

So much forced expression

nothing wrong from this angle, a lot styling is for a better airflow I guess.
It looks like it hunts the car in front of it, wants to bite it, tvr shark

Car in front sees this, looks like it’s suffering from something or just a bit thick, tvr gaspingfish.

Think I prefer a nice blue/grey colour. Looks more natural......

In the latest pic (black wheels) you can see for sure...

the Rimstocks in the original red Griff pics look both sizes front & rear.. I went to Goodwood and they looked both same size there.

a line from latest email from TVR....sounds interesting!

We will be organising additional depositor only events also, details of which will be communicated by separate mailing once confirmed and there will be another update on progress delivered to you later this month.

Does this mean we will actually see the car in action, get a closer look and even sit in the thing? I do hope so....

Email also included this photo. Looks like it was taken at an airfield and with the blue tape on the car I assume they were doing some top speed runs? Need to make sure it hits that 200 mph eh!

That's Duct tape as supplied with all TVR's and used when required to stop things falling off!
