To be perfectly honest, I really like the eye black on the CALTY design that makes it look like a panda. It keeps the spirit of the hachi-roku alive. That said, I really prefer the overall look of the ED2 design. It's sexy.
Putting all of that aside, I have to agree totally with OST. If this thing drives well and looks like shit, I won't be heartbroken. It would really be in Toyota's interest to make this thing look mean.. but this car IS the revival of a legend, and a legend that was NOT built on image. The moment Toyota makes this car about image, they're going to piss off a LOT of people. (By the way, the legend I'm talking about is the AE86, not the celica. I'm not saying the celica's not a legend, but this concept's even named after the hachi-roku.)
I would prefer ED2's design, but if this thing looks like a Prius and drives like a champ, I'll still buy one.
