So what is it that you do? F Chat isnt a support group ....

i like it alot ...... price tag ???

 

I would need to see more pics. First impression is that its an NSX with an identity crisis.

 

not worth it

 

I'm liking it. When's it coming over?

 

That car could not do 200mph with 320hp. Other than that it is ugly.

 

I like it. If the Koreans are putting out sportscars that are exciting, it will lead to more competition. Competition is good. It would be even better if the Koreans spent some energy in motorsports, where the real competition exists.

The Koreans are not messing around.

What exactly is "Proto?"

 

That's for sure....unless it was geared for just top speed and a 8 sec 0-60 lol.

 

The front seems way too NSX-y to me. And that's not good.

 

IMO it doesn't have a real design identity, kinda looks like they took pieces from all the most recognizable supercars and made a hodge podge supercar.

 

i've always loved nsx.
too bad they stopped making it.
maybe i'll buy spirra instead... not.

nice interior.
reminds me of my neighbor's mercury back in the 80's.

 

Is that a Koeniggsisegggg rear?? The tail lights look awfully familiar..

What do you do at Proto if you dont mind me asking?

 

Well said. I like it but it has no identity

Was the 4.6 developed in-house or did Proto outsource it? I'm a big fan of anything with 8 or more pistons.

Looks neat, but no shots of the motor on the site... 4.6= Blue oval?

Also, you guys over paid your copywriter.

 

Well, I probably have a different take than most others here. The car itself does not stir me. I would like to see a much more retro---read as 50s or early 60s---look. It should be a roadster, great handling, decent acceleration and top speed, with all modern suspension, brakes, drivetrain, but its the look that I crave, swoopy, sexy and RETRO...if some one could provide that at your price point, I don't think you could build enough of them. Hey, you said you wanted feed back.

 

Not a bad looking ride but it does need something different to make it really stand out. A price drop would be nice too.............. It probably looks better in person.

 

200mph with only 320hp didn't sound rigght to me either. For 80K it better have more power or be extremely light weight.

 

Wouldn't consider buying it unless it was $45-50k and even then I wouldn't buy it

 

Well, this is what I was going to say but it has been said. There is no coherent theme that ties the car together. It just lacks the flow of say, the NSX or Gallardo, from which this appears to have inspiration.

A good start, but not quite finished IMO.
