It might be a little better if the wheels and tires actually fit the car... some 19x17's would go nicely with a 3xx/35-19

ditto on that one.I think it looks Hardcore...but only as a HARDCORE track car and it looks very disproportional in the back IMO.

i love the hood and the diffuser - but the car looks incomplete, as if they ran out of time before the show.

The front is a little off but the rear is just mean. I'd definetly like to see that thing in action.

I think their target was something like this..



But the fenders taper off differently and the sides are totally different, the rear quarter panels are more like the top secret supra gt300 style, although they both share that big fish mouth front bumper.

I would like to see it with the front fenders more contoured to the body like the jgtc supra pictured above, with the front lip, and rear fenders / sides more along the lines of the BRS supra wide body, with the rear curve that matches the tail light curve eliminated.

I'd rock it if the front had a wider opening and the rear was more complete. the sides need to be curved off.

I think the car is ugly. I agree with a number of opinions in that they should have made the car more race inspired. I say they should have stepped up the engineering and just gone open wheel.
