    If it looks HALF as good at what's being loaded on the truck there, this thing will be a home run. A big step up for the design department!

    I was thinking it actually had more similarities with the Lotus Evora.

    I think we need a plain 90 degree side view. After the Cali miscue, I want to know how big the bumm is...

    The lotus looks like a shortened 246 with a little bit of Opel GT. The lotus also looks kind of dumpy and bug like. The lotus has no originality.

    I think, in the flesh, that will appear very musclar and quite Ferrari-esque. Like I said before, the mirrors need to be lightened a bit, and the front trim on the intakes should be more subtle. Still, I personally quite like it.

    EDIT: and lowered a bit to reduce that wheel gap

    Does anyone else see a Chevrolet Camaro???

    I wouldn't know what to do if I looked out of the side view mirrors and didn't see those bird grabbing intakes....

    I have to agree.......Im thinking that a Scud is my next car if this is what the 450 is looking like.
    Im wondering how close this actually is to what the production car will be? Whatever it is, I think
    the 430 and 360 are way better looking cars. As far as performance, It will obviously blow them
    away.

    Like what I see. I'd be hesitant in saying this is it though, it may be a one-off. Any other thoughts?

    With that said would you rather date a beautiful woman that wasn't that great in bed or an ugly girl who was fantastic????
