Beijing 700R Inherits Sleek Design, Annoying Alphanumericism Of Western Sports Cars

Another day, another set of pics of a could-be Chinese supercar. As with the Soueast X1 and other concepts, this car doesn't appear to have a motor or, likely, even an interior. Still, it is nice to see BAW, which produces the Hummer Jeep, come up with their own concept. Though it borrows a little here and there from Aston Martin and Lexus, we have to give it credit for its athletic proportions and special touches. We especially like the air inlets, which are integrated into the lights and include an unusual geometric pattern reminiscent of a circuit board. Unofortunately, this particular model hasn't been endowed with a cool name like "Victory Leopard" or "Great Achievement Winner."

As apposed to "King Ranch" or "Mule Skinner" editions.

First blush it looks like the 350Z. A little more body sculpting, but size and overall shape looks similar...

I like the back end a bit, but the rear arch (over the wheel wells) is just a bit too much. Either that or the style line is too low. Raise that up, and do something about the overly blank front end, and it would be a damn fine looking car.

@FightingChance: How true. The front end has a similar style, but is somehow comes up shorter on cheetah-ness.
