Is that a car? This is a super early April fools joke, right?

How much Saki and Soju did the guys who did that pound down before it started looking good? How frikken' hard can it be to modernize the looks of a 510 or 260 just a bit and sell it to gearheads?

ETA If that or a similar design makes it to market, RB will have to really reach to make it any uglier than the FR-S kit.

The panel cut out is more like for stealth - to avoid radar detection.

It's nice to see the Pontiac Aztek designer finally got a new job and gave us this little gem.

Should have put nsfw in the title.
Someone is going to get fired for looking at grotesque things at work.

I like it. WOuld I drive one? Yes. Would I trade my BRZ for it? No. But I think a modern "Dime" would be pretty cool.

I'll bet if you looked at concept cars from 1982 they looked similar

Honestly.... and I think a lot of people can agree to this.

Nissan, what part of people want another Silvia do you not understand.

I cannot bring myself to liking the style of this car. Yes, the NISMO looks slightly interesting but that's about it. Performance wise, this could be a great competitor but visually...I hate it. And for the Nissan VC to call the twins a "mid-life crisis" is appalling. The fact that the IDx is their answer to the twins makes it different from a "mid-life crisis" from his very own view...how so?

ew. i'm gonna pass on the aesthetics on the car. this is still just the concept, so I can't imagine how much worse it would look if it actually made it into production.
