    Cool Concept. Wert is confused. Maybe the design has evolved to provide additional self-protection?

    That is the weakest transformer I have ever seen.


    I'm going back to being a fan of ThunderCats, because this is embarassing.

    Someone should explain to Bay et. al. that most tires have better traction on the tread, not the sidewalls.

    I think this looks awesome (except for the slab-sided rear center, which looks like they phoned it in, hence why it resembles an icebox). For a business plan, GM should just make cars that look like Hot Wheels toys. I mean, what do they have got to lose? Market share?! Pah!

    Crikey mate, that stingray looks dangerous! (I couldn't help myself...)


    Seriously, I'm not a fan. I think they went too angular. Looks like a Caddy and a Lambo had thier way with it.

    I suppose it's fine as a concept, and I love the idea that some of those classic elements might be coming back in future cars, but this car is just a little too exaggerated for my taste. The the front fenders are nice, though rear ones are just too extreme. The dimples on the side of the smiling face front grill make it look like Jim Carey in the Mask.

    @Xeno: But a revolutionary family car that defines a new segment. You can't tell me the NHW20 Prius design wasn't radical.


    And I doubt a dose of badass would hurt sales. Fuel economy, yes. Sales? No.
