Forget the new Camaro, Challenger, Mustang. This looks 10x better than any of them. It’s also 10x the price, lol. The logo looks too Ferrari though. But it’s as if they took the styling cues from older muscle cars and added a bit of Ferrari.

I like most everything about it with the exception of the steering wheel and no rear spoiler. Other than that, very impressed. ---

Put it this way: It would be like someone taking a Z32 body, blending in a '94 Camry front end, grafting on an 2G Eclipse tailsection replete with Altezzas; then deleting the grille and adding fangs. It’s a mishmash of a certain era’s styling cues from several manufactures, rendered on an iconic shape. Is it well-made? I’m sure, but if the idea is poor to begin with it’s simply a turd that the dog pinched off with great care. ---

I understand your opinion but I just think they made it look good. They took all my favorite parts of the designs of older muscle cars and combined them in a way that’s appeals to my eye. I might have styled the front end differently, but the profile and the rear look great. Combine that with carbon fiber, a ZR1 motor and in a smaller package than what you can currently buy from the big 3 and I’m that much more interested. ---

It’s such an unoriginal design they couldn’t even remove the rear bumper. Aesthetically speaking, this shit is weak. ---
