No offence but the back half of the car's styling looks quite similar to the tuscani. They probably tried to put a slight hint of the fairlady in it too but anyways its just only a prototype so will look quite different from the one that we are looking at now.
The rx8 proto also looks crap but it was improved ALOT and it worked out in the end.

To each his own, just my opinion.

The front end didn't really impress me at first but is slowly growing on me. The car's 85% to 90% complete according to sources so hopefully the front end's one of the things they'll change. If not, oh well...it'll still kick a lot of ***.

I thought it was out already. Saw a modded version in import tuner mag.

I like it, my wife says it looks kinda like the 8.

Lets see if my TOTO opens this week...

I think the car looks great!

Like the rear.

Like the front even more!

We need more radical cars on our road.

99.9% of the cars on the road just looks crap!

Why can't all cars be done up the likes of zondas or lambo or the elise....

Its time to move on....

Stop staying in the 80's

Cars are no longer a box with 4 wheels, so why is the design of cars still a box with 4 wheels.

Crap.

Front looks like Audi TT .

Overall not as fierce :-)

Crap.

Yup. I agree with the 99.9% road crap sentence. Its almost like a congested North Korea. Everyone drives the same crappy car! In the states, over 50 new models are released every year!

Since we already have such strict car laws; why not just do away with crappy cars and only allow better ones in. And do away with the stupid monopoly and gangster tactics authorised distributors have in SG; 3rd world syndrome.

Cars can all be like Zondas and Lambos but then again the price will be that of a zonda and lambo.

Its a box with 4 wheels because the cars sold here are at the lowest end of the car model spectrum. Here cars are ex, so people buy the cheapest. And when its the cheapest, one cannot expect the manufacturer to spend huge bucks to design it. Nice designs are also very expensive to produce. eg. its easier to produce flat panels than curve ones.

That is supposed to be a "new" car ?? It looks like a kitted up 350Z with R34's tail lights. Thats all. It does not live up to the look and butch/muscules of the old Skyline... R32 - R34. Hakasuka all the way :burnout:
