been looking at pics of this all day and still come to the same conclusion as i did when i first saw it. It looks like a kit car. Just not a nice car at all. It looks a bit like a Fiat Coupe

I died a little when i heard it was not to be 4WD and it had no turbo. Then i saw it, yuk so under whelmed. the Nissan 370z is a much prettier car, as is the Hyundai genesis coupe.

370z is an absolute mess.

By that logic, you're implicitly suggesting the Pininfarina designed Fiat Coupe looks like a kit car?

Fantastic fit and finish for a kit car!

Sorry don't agree. Really looking forward to when this and the GT86 comes out.

Just need to know the price.....

I read this and thought you were an idiot but hey, it's a subjective statement and we can't all like the same thing. Unfortunately, you then said:

And confirmed it. Smooth work.

I thought it was bad at first but it is really growing on me. Still not seen one in the flesh.

I agree with you on the BRZ.. but I also feel the same about this car you just posted!

The BRZ may look a lot better in the flesh though as WR Blue is not an easy colour to capture with a camera.

I think it really is let down by the wheels. They're bloody hideous.

Form follows function with this car - the aim was to get the engine as low as possible, fit reasonably small and high profile tyres, get the weight distribution right, and still meet the safety regulations. There wasn't much left over for styling, but frankly if it's as decent in the corners as everyone who's driven it says, nobody who really likes driving will care. You don't have to look at it from behind the wheel.
