Awesome. One of the great things about EVO in my opinion - reviews, updates and info on many non-mainstream cars. Stellar. As for the car itself, I'm rarely a fan of the retro-modernization, and this one doesn't really do it for me either. The gullwings are pretty cool, but the car as a whole does not elicit any enamored emotions from me. Nonetheless, great little piece of machinery.

wow, this company really tries to capture all the finer points of every car out there and mold it all into one huh?
I see lines of the early 60's Vettes, Newer Vettes, 3rd Gen RX-7, Acura Integra (headlights, put away your flamethrowers), Viper (engine ), i think i see a little Aston Martin in the rear, Mercedes Gull Wing.
The overall body lines really scream out Jaguar E-type when viewed from the side and you've got a nice chunk of Porsche in the interior
While the whole car doesn't scream out to me, i suppose it's looks could grow on me..especially at 5,000RPM in top gear

Car from Bristol always have a rather "unique" look that I seems not able to like or accept, especially when that hefty price tag comes into play. It's not the most high tech machine, nor is it the most elegant looking.

Ugly and pointless, I would rather have a TVR Sagaris.

Hm, I'm not a big fan. I mean I'm sure it goes like stink, and is probably a fun car to drive daily, but gah its ugly. Not hideous, but definitely not worthy of the pricetag. I'd much rather have a Viper. Same engine, better looks.
