FUGLY!

There may be a market for these kinds of builds but the execution of the body styling always falls apart on these "designs". The Chevelle on the 2004-2007 GTO was another example of a car where the proportions just didn't work very well. Do they use actual automotive design and styling guys for these before they pour all the money in the tooling? I'd be curious to see how they developed the idea from idea to finished product.

That was also my first thought when I saw it.

I actually spoke to the "designer" and looked at his sketches. He had some drawing ability but I really think a lot of the aesthetic execution issues could have been worked out in a scale model.

Totally agree with the modern Chevelle. It looks like it was forced. Great idea, but needs some refining.

It looks pretty cool if you like ugly ass cars but to each his own;)

It kind of reminds me of a, "Jerry Springer Show", with a title that includes the word, "Transgender".:wow:

....and looks about like the person who would be discribed as such.

Now THAT... was funny.

Someone will buy it. Hopefully they won't live in my neighborhood so I won't have to look at it too often! Are they selling the 62 retro vette body thingies that were shown at SEMA the last several years?

Don't you just look at stuff like this and say, "man, I wish they would have used those resources to develop something that "I" could use on my own car, like a killer front splitter for my 70 Camaro???"
