oooooo
I don't normally like the 'new style' 7s but that's nice. Is the track wider at the front than the back or is that just an
optical illusion?
Wonder why they closed off the brake disc and then fit an air intake to get the air back in again.
would look better WITH arches - IMO of course
Though i do like how the engine flows into the dash!! pretty cool, nice doors too
(i didn't resize image either )
I don't normally like modern seven interpretations, but that one is stunning! The attention to detail is just

More of a Plymouth Prowler inspiration than a 7, but nice all the same.

Hmm. not bad. However, I might or might not have been in a certain vehicle body shop this week, and, I might or might not have seen a REALLY nice car
( or 2, or 3, or more) being lovingly crafted. Now then what EVER you do, DON'T tell speedyXJS about this one that I might or might not have
seen, but it most definately might have been based around a Jag running gear (and xk6 [plus a bit of magic] engine). Oh & I am probably sworn to
secrecy on this one so it most definately had NOTHING to do with this company.
The alfa romeo that I did see wasn't bad either. (Even if it was TOTALLY naked and in the process of receiving some extreme loving from the body
guru.)
Oh and I didn't do any photos as all I saw had to be deniable. Even the inflatable sheep.
I really really REALLY want one of these!!
Gimme gimme gimme!
Stunning design.

Anyone any good with fibre glass mouldings, i would'nt mind a re skin like that.
That really is quite nice.
each to their own but I think that's f'ugly.
Quality build but f'ugly all the same!!!
Give me the original Lotus 7 anyday...
As much as I like the classic look, this one is
TOTALY WICKED!
to american for me.....
Looks a bit silly IMHO.
Maybe if I lived in California, but wouldn't want to be seen driving it around North London!

Nice clean lines. Like it!!
I love it. but then the classic Locost look has become a bit humdrum for me anyway.
It's a laugh that Cadilac did it. That's the least appropriate constituency for a Sevenesque there is. Imagine Bentley doing the same thing.
Do you figure your average Bentley driver would tolerate the wind buffeting for over 30 seconds? "Jeeves, put this thing back in the barn and
sell off my shares. Oh, and see to it that someone slaps the CEO, would you?"
On a serious note, my favorite detail is the wheels being thrust so far forward. There's something about two big spinning strips of rubber being
the first thing that you encounter on a car.....
