mmmm *Drools* 'tis a very nice car .... just wish they'd made it a bit more like the Concept-E ... pity its a FWD as well

Looks kinda nice... but they cant seem to get their power output sorted.

3.8 Litre V6 putting out 263 Horsepower, which equates to 196 Kw's..... thats 51.5 Kw's per litre.

We have a 2 litre engine putting out around 150 Kw's... thats 75 Kw's per litre... so a car designed some 15 years prior to this one is technically more efficient.

yeah, I would much prefer this car to be similarly specced to the;

Eclipse GSX: AWD model equipped with a 210 hp turbocharged 2.0 L 16-valve DOHC Mitsubishi 4G63 engine

With those looks + those specs they would not be able to make enough...

Small output for an engine that size.The back looks like a Audi TT,a little too rounded.

+1 on low engine output and looking like a TT from behind. Imho it's a bit too swoopy/curvy (or whatever)...makes it look too soft.
