Dont' like, another example of retro looking bad :(

Well. Allthough they're messing with one of my alltime favourites, I don't think they got it wrong. It's a very decent looking car, while keeping all the trademarks.
Maybe it could lead to a nice car. But what's the point of an hiper-short car today? Stratos was made for rallying and had poor straight-line performance because of it's incredible short wheel-base.

If it's just a style exercise, they got it right. Just like they got the Fulvia concept right. And the Trepiuno... What a shame they die before becoming true. They are better retro-style cars than Beetles and Minis.

...i think its cool. Thanks 4 the link. The original, though it was a good car, was in my opinion butt-ugly, so it wasnt hard to make it prettier... :) But they still kept it retro. But its obviously not built for racing, so I wonder where's the customers for this project? Well I guess if it goes into production AND they get the price right...
