I agree with Matador; the damper looks like Bilstein labeling. The color nails it more than anything. Now we just need damping curves to be disclosed! [*nerdgasm*]

I agree. I was hoping for the MKIII tails minus the rear diffuser.

I think everyone agrees about the taillights, but if this really is basically the production body, we might be in for a disappointment I guess for now we can imagine that the car will come with the ugly lights. If they revert back to the concept lights we'll all have a pleasant surprise

Hope you're right about this. I hope there is sanity within the designer. LOL

I wish you were right but I highly doubt it.

Side mirrors are any easy bolt on change if you REALLY hate them so i wouldn't be too worried about em.

I like the side mirrors.

They are decently sized, which means I can see more. But they are designed very sleek too IMO. It's not like they are big and bulky

I don't see the point of door mounted mirrors if the window glass isn't 1 piece. That's the one thing I don't like about some of the recent cars both companies have produced lately.







I dont get why they do it. It makes it look "mass-production-kia'ish" imo. At least the FR-S didn't have it, but the mule pics don't inspire much hope.

Celicajim thinks they are bilstein, I think they are sachs. That pic is form the end of a spy vid, and that truck was parked outside the garage. That being said, jim made a great observation, and I wouldn't be surprised if they are testing bilstein too.
