Hmm it looks good in the drawing but I dunno who it'd turn out when it's finished. I was never a big fan of convertibles but nevertheless I doubt it'd look as nice in real.

I didn't think the fto body was strong enough to handle something like this?

Actually what I was getting at was that a VS front will never look that good, so if the concept art is making even the front look good it just goes to show that it won't turn out looking as good in the end as the concept, should still be pretty decent.

The whole car looks a bit better in the pics .. but only cause the perspective is all off .. the car is shortened too much .. theres no bootlid & the front seats are back where the rear parcel shelf should be .. good luck steering the thing ;)either that or the rear parcel shelf has moved forward .. & yet where has all that extra space gone? 8O :lol:

woah geez its definately original 8O

the photoshop pic looks so crappy he couldve at least put some sides, different front bar and some better wheels. remove the spoiler and it might look preety good.

but he shouldnt put that bulk of a folding roof where he has put it in the pic, looks like its got a wart or something back there :lol:

keep us updated
