[Who]

without further ado

 

Alfa Romeo 4C

 

Toyota FT86 II

 

Saab PheoniX

 

Gumpert Tornate

[Ryzza5]

I thought Gumperts were supposed to look ugly - that one doesn't :lol:

that too looks ugly, check the back side :S

 

btw, that's a lovely Toyota :D

[t.]

So how many of these strikingly similar Celica/Supra concepts are Toyota going to show us before they get on and, you know, build one?

 

Alfa is tres cool, but lose the tacky flag mirrors. The Gumpert doesn't do anything for me tbh. Saab is still a Saab, that problem cannot be solved through design.

[Jazzi]

C4 and FT85 = :drool:

SAAB & Gumpert = Mehhhhh. Not too keen on them tbh

[Camel]

Alfa and Toyota. Do want.

[T1M]

I'm personally not sure on the looks of that Alfa.. :leaves: 8C looks better imo. Toyota is nice, but when are they actually going to build any? That Saab looks epic :D Gumpert looks a bit too.. erm, tame?

[Ken]

FT86 II ....... Do absolutly want :drool:

[CLR-GTR]

The Alfa and Saab are fantastic! Too bad Saab said it won't go in production, it would really boost sales with the right specs. The Toyota, well it doesn't look bad but I'm definitely not excited to see one in real.

 

The Gumpert is wayyyy too boring. I don't know what's going on today but just like the MP4-12C it's ''just another car'' in its class, and not as different from the rest as the F1 and the Apollo were. The design really has nothing that really makes the car stand out from the rest as the Apollo did. It looks boring, very ''friendly'' too. Too bad, a new Gumpert sounded to me like a new roadmonster, but getting that external studio involved has not been the correct thing to do imo.

[hpluls]

Am I alone in thinking the Alfa looks like an Elise with a bit of Solstice?

[gingervette]

Well obviously the Aventador LP700 stole the show. Other than that, I can really see nothing extremely desirable for my tastes. Autoblog says that the new Gumpert model looks better than the Apollo, I beg to differ.

[Andreas¹]

The Gumpert... can't they make something that won't set fire to your eyes? The FT86 looks great, too bad they don't seem to want to actually make it... Personally I'm most excited about the Saab, partly because I think it looks epic and partly because I'd like to see them survive the problems they've had lately and it certainly wouldn't hurt if some of the design from the PhoeniX made it to some production car in the future.

[zo6dude]

I can defiantly see some Spyker design in that new Saab, I like it. No pics of the Agera R? That is one HOT car.

I saw the roofline similarities between that and the Peking-to-Paris, but I suspect it'll be the last (or one of the last) tie with Spyker. They're selling the supercar division. :(

The Saab has led to a somewhat heated debate between the designer and chris bangle, the guy responsible for making modern beemers so bland streamlined

[ScoobSTi]

I'm loving the FT86 II, but the LED's are becoming a cliché, ever since Audi started using them.

Nope! :)

:agreed:

Edit: Shouldn't you be in bed, Who? :cheeky:

[T0M722]

So many nice cars here. The FT-86 is awesome, Gumpert looks like it's made in China and is extremely vulgar, Alfa is very good looking and everything from Mansory can just GTFO.

[T1M]

Mansory Siracusa *Shudders*

I wondered how long it would be before someone ruined this gorgeous car. :rolleyes: How Mansory sell anything is beyond me.

 

On another note, that Swift is sweeeeet. :D

[Lambo Llama]

I wondered how long it would be before someone ruined this gorgeous car. :rolleyes:

What's to ruin?:cheeky:

I must agree, the Mansory job is even worse. Truly hideous.

Dunno what came over Gumpert with this new car. The Apollo was never beautiful as such, but it did look great in a kind of mad way.

[t.]

Without looking I assume we're talking about the 458? I Laughed when I saw it. I"ll probably see one this summer as well, ha.

[superhyper]

That Saab is SCHWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET! :drool:

[Ryzza5]

Or as I call them, Suzuki Not-so-Swift's :p

[Rai06]

Wait till Mansory get their hands on the Huayra. Or the Ferrari FF. -shudder-
