    Glad to see he is still chopping - And still designing brilliantly. I'd hit it.
    This. Iacoski is unbelievable when it comes to photochopping.

    looking to th GT-R in the production version...maybe it's better than the Concept, not in my book, but is still yglu and classless. even a Mustang is classier. and that's all.
    this design simply sucks, from a design point of view, then the author has some capabilities with renderings, but can I suggest to design a house next time maybe?

    I like it eventhough more retros are not needed. I can definitely see the 240 in the roof and still they managed to incorporate the cantilever roof design with it.

    I think a design like this would look great as long as it's smaller than the Z33.

    Typical photoshop. Obviously straight from the GT-R. Except, those big lights made it cute...

    There isn't a single line on it from the GT-R, only similar design bits.

    Successors of famous cars are a let-down in 99,9% of all cases IMO. This is no exceptions.

    plus, this isn't connected in any way to Nissan or any kind of a 240Z successor

    I just read that, but I was finishing a nice meal of sweet spare ribs so unable to touch my keyboard for a while. Alternatively, I may read the full post next time I respond.

    I wish they had kept that on the production car along with a few other things they changed.

    I'm not sure if Subaru will be selling it though. It might be just Toyota's little project.

    I like the idea of a 240Z, especially with gas prices so damn high anyway. A cheap, (relatively) fuel efficient car would be nice.
