Just a few hours to go...

That post by ox is exactly why renderings suck. The silver one in the animation shot which shows the three dimensional viewpoint much better makes it look waaay cooler. Unless its just me who cannot visualize in three dimensions.

Remember old trends seem to come back.
Remember 70's trends where hot a few years ago.
You have Younger people wearing 70's style clothes, watching shows like "That 70's show", Even the 70's hair style came back.
I wasnt around in the 60's but I have no problem if they being back the mini Skirts... J/k

A few tidbits of commonality with other cars in the lineup is fine...just be damn grateful it does not have a Vega steering wheel.

I honestly can say I dont like it... The front looks cool, But the interior looks like a Supra, The rear end looks like a Camaro...

You mean the middle one? That is a still I took from the Trinity Animation video done months ago based on the Jalopnik images.
Excuse me, it is a cropping from a still they did on their web site...not from the animation. Sorry.

It's nice that R&T brought us the actual car with a choice of concave or convex wheels and an emergency brake delete option.

To each their own, I guess. That's why Baskin Robbins has 31 flavors.

I'm glad we live in a country, and at a time, where we have a choice about about really uninmportant things like this.

many didn't like the C4 interior, but I agree with you.

some people see dead people.... I am missing the similarity, too, other than they are both interiors.

Please tell me they aren't putting those stupid red reflectors on the rear. They are on my wife's Acura TL and just look terrible to me.

Can't wait to see the real pictures, engine horsepower, if any optional engines, and the MSRP, but so far so good!

Lots of intrigue here but still no real pix. I hope the actual photographs pull the rear end of this thing into focus because I'm just not getting it yet. The interior is ok but a lot will depend on the quality of the materials and you just can't tell from a photograph of a drawing. I'm pretty sure it'll be right up there but we'll see.

Just can't get past that rear end...
