I love how the headlights have character instead of being forced into shape for the bulbs. The tailights keep looking more tolerable ever time they take off a piece of camo. Bring on saturday please

I believe that those are the stock wheels and tires, they look similar to the ones in previous prototypes.

This class is limited to street legal tires right? Otherwise they should've gone with slicks.

OFFTOPIC: is the RE11s available in the US?

Really? They look like p00 to me with the camo

I just hope the camo is hiding some elements that make them fit the front better. Those "unmasked" pics look decent but even those are just guesses. If not, I'll probably end up designing some headlight covers haha

STILL OFFTOPIC: Where can I buy them? I found some at nengun performance, but they cost $130 more per tire than the regular re11 at tirerack! I can't seem to find any other retailers.

On the headlights?

I'm still annoyed that after 3 amazing concepts with great headlight/taillights, this is what they're settling on...

It's for the turn signal. In this location there is a logo that also lights up. Subaru has a GM-like fender vent slightly above this location and the turn signal is mounted on mirrors instead.

Interesting.

subatoy · 10-14-2011, 12:41 AM

has there been any confirmation on the trunk layout?
is it going to be hatch like the rsx and celica or just a regular boring trunk?

PAImportTuner · 10-14-2011, 12:43 AM

The car will be sporting H&R suspension too.
