I dunno, looks like a Lotus Batmobile to me


(This IS a pic of the FRONT BTW. Pincers optional?)

While the rear deck seems to be inspired by the original Europa, the rest of the car doesn't "flow".

I like it. The front is a tad over the top, but I still like it.

Looks like some sort of mini Gallardo to me...

Holly !

That thing is awesome!

This is what I was hoping the Evora would look more like (even though I do like it).

I don't care if it's an Elise Replacement or a Europa. That car is cool - nose and all!

it's O.K. I wudn't buy it, it looks like on of those cars trying 2 look cool but cant really pull it off. With some adjustments I'm sure it would look way better. What are the chances of this coming into production?

How many concept cars actually get put into production, it'll probably go through more changes.
