Very nicely done, the design is well proportioned and very aggressive, all the lines look good on the side view,... I don't really like the rear light "s", but everything else it's fine,... although I have to say it has some F430 / Ford GT mix to me.

Nice lines.... the offspring of a Lambo Gallardo and a Lotus Exige.

I used to have a customer account next door to Saleen in Irvine, called Precision Direct. Used to see S7s fly by all the time. Might have to pay them a visit.

Bit of Exige, bit of Gallardo, bit of S7. All good things. Still, I don't think it looks like finished. Something about it when viewed from the view makes it look tuner-ish. Not a bad thing, especially considering the fact that this is a concept (no doors and all that).

I actually think it has some Veilside NSX in the front design and the stock NSX in the rear view. Look:

Actually the tail lights look like the NSX tails and the front looks like an HSC revision (NSX replacement). It shares a lot more with the NSX than you might think, especially if you are an NSX owner, you would see these things and think its a new spin on an old design.
