    As I said before, the sketches are very good. Either the artist has seen it or he has a highly developed 6th sense!!

    Charisma is the word for the F151.... And a lot more than 5 have already been sold!

    I re-did my original sketch with some new info provided. How does this match reality?:

    If this is how she turns out, I'll be happy. Just hope it will look bigger than a Mazda 6. ;)
    You've got a good eye though, mate. You know if it really matches your sketch, some people will have some questions! :D

    I really can't wait for Geneva, though. With Lamborghini launching the new one as well as Pagani, this should be a good year!

    I know the proportions are right because I overlaid the spy pic by Fchatter Shawn (tx246), but unfortunately, the perspective makes the the rear look a bit chunky. Also, on the prototypes, they've added some sort of filler behind the bumper, which makes it look like there's more rear overhang.

    Don't know if it will look bigger than a Mazda 6, but for sure it will look different - the latest pics show it having a long and sleek front end. No mistaking this for a Mazda 6.

    Just pulling your leg about the Mazda comment. :)
    It's interesting to think about where this could take the segment. As far as GT's are concerned, I'm curious about the shooting-brake idea.

    In part, this design direction impacts the classic nature of the grand tourer itself. I think you'll see this really sell, but the 599 replacement sell much more...
