Great design, especially the roof ...AWESOME! |
Outlaw 12-10-2002 |
"I know I may sound just as annoying as your mummy is when she tells you to take your umbrella with you on a cloudy day. But I happen to have this problem with open cockpit cars, I can't help but think about ""what if it rains?"". So I don't like conventional foldable tops, they make a lot of noise, because of the speed because of the rain and so on, they're delicate so you better keep the car in a garage to protect it, and I can't really trust them in the unlucky case of an accident ...how boring! So I generally prefer a coupe or a metal foldable roof. So imagine how disappointed I am when I see a prototype like this one: virtually no windscreen, absolutely no roll-bar... not that when I look at a car I already plan to destroy it in a car crash, but still! I guess showcars are the playground of designers, but get real! Who's gonna ever make a car like that? Drive it around and see how many insects you're going to eat; a sudden rain and then tell me how much fun it is to drive it wearing the raincoat while your passenger is holding the umbrella for you. It's a pity because, except for the roof issue, the styling is very good and it doesn't seem out of proportion at all, to me.""" |
out of proportion |

Although not stated as such I guess the engine must be somewhere in front of the driver, and the car may be front wheel driven. This actually makes the car look a bit out of proportion for a speedster, with much too long a bonnet, and something that looks like a place for rear passengers. |
