The live reveal finally worked for me. So let's see:
Interior... Irrelevant Fantasy
Practicality... Fail
Exterior... Critical Fail
Color... Hot
This disaster could only be saved by a banging drivetrain. I'm not holding my breath.

I'm actually liking that! The flat black with white walls. For the record, I'm well under 3 decades old.
I think the problem is mostly in the A pillars. With the flat black the A pillars aren't so in-your-face.
The nose I like. The rump I like. the wrap-around rear window, I like. It's just the A pillar that gets to me the wrong way. If they diminished it a little or even make it disappear like the other pillars then that'd be good.
either way I think this shape would work in a car about the size of an xB (original xB.) It's basically a meaner looking xB with a long snout to house that hopefully longitudinal engine.

I actually like it! Yes I said like it! I agree with narcone, I've only seen mostly tC owners post about this. I'd actually drive if they tilted the windshield a little. But other than that it's perfect. John, that makes it looks even better!!

As stated, you can't polish a turd....
Also,
Here's two problems with the engine:
1. It'll probably have a 1.8 or 2.4, making it far from a hotrod)
2. If the motor is nice, (turbo pushing all 4 wheels) we'll wish it was in a tC, not this ugly contraption!
Lose/Lose situation IMO
-THE DON

Toaster on wheels > the most retarded looking thing on wheels.
