nice. must start saving and maybe by the imte I'm 178 I may have enough dosh.
but why aren't the brake calipers fitted horizontally at the lowest point of the disc?
surely that helps keeping CoG low - any reason why they are not fitted like that?

because the wishbones and ball joints (or whatever ferrari would use) would be in the way?
probably, but there's only so far you can take the whole weight reduction lower CoG thing really before it gets silly i think.
it looks unusal, and different, and i think thats why they've gone for it where they have.
That IS spookily similar to.......
Looks abit like a GT40 to me
Isn't it like a Lamborghini Muira?

Forgive me for going against common opinion, but er, it isn't that nice.
Front end looks a bit odd, and the side view looks a bit mustangish at the rear, and the shape looks generally a bit like a GT40. But, I like how
those cars look, not this one though.
Hi
This, in my opinion, bears a striking resemblance to the Opel GTJ, my first car, Ahh the memories.
Mick
From the side, it looks like the GT40... (IMO)
The front end kind of reminds me of the Fury LeMans style bonnet.

well i think the epona looks far nicer. Hell, even that morgan looks better.

that is the most likely I reckon; not sure if a system can be designed to get round that.
. Notice the front and rear discs are
also the same size. And just like every other concept car rendering in the history of time, it has ridiculous wheels that barely fit under the arches
with a thin layer of tyre painted on the edge. An engineer probably hasn't seen it yet! LOL guys! It's concept artwork - the calipers are there because that's where the artist put them . Notice the front and rear discs are

Damn pretty though - I'll have one.

Not sure it would alter the C of G as it's unsprung weight?
