Corvette. Aston Martin. Maserati. BMW Z4. Ferrari 599.
There’s more than a little Alfa 8C in it.
Cool. Hyundai Tiburon on acid.
From that angle, there’s a fair bit of Maserati Gran Turismo, which drew influence from the Corvette.
Clearly Aston Martin. But that shouldn’t be a Surprise. Fisker designed a lot of recent Aston Martins.
I’d have to say Tesla, Tucker, and Vector because this car will never be.
It looks like the Fisker Karma Four-Door.
Quite handsome.
Aren’t those wheels from a late 80′s Trans Am?
In person, this is a very beautiful car. Does it resemble a Corvette? Absolutely. But it seems that if classic beauty in a GT is your top priority, this is where you end up. Kudos for somehow adding a retractable hardtop without killing the lines. The rear seats are of course a joke.
Hot Wheels.
They had alternative propulsion as well.
Does this car have actual tires?
Mercedes SL-class on the rear. It looks very Ferrari California-like from the front 3/4 and profile.
This looks gorgeous.
The funny moustache at the front was influenced by a 19th century British copper. Otherwise gorgeous.
If we have to give out money, give it all to these guys.
It’s pininfarina circa 1970′s baby. Love the skinny A-pillar. Rad I tell you.
I’ve got to admit that it’s a surprisingly nice looking car. Will it ever make it into production?
I see lots of SL in the roofline and Vette below the belt.
I don’t care what the influences are, that car is the definition of t3h sex. Man, I can’t get enough of how well-proportioned it is — this is one of those cars (now in the ranks of the Alfa 8C, DB9, Alfa 33 Stradale, Ford GT50, Pinin Birdcage) that leaves me in awe everytime I see it.
I love that this car doesn’t really care about performance, because you show up in style wherever you go. The most menial tasks become a grand occasion…
Guy Fawkes.
