Looking closer at those pictures, the lines and curves look very... Gumpert like. I wonder if it can drive upside down. :eekdance:

So that is the production model BRZ correct? That thing is soooo sexy!

I believe so. If not, then it should be very close to it.

Something about the rear fender arches doesn't look right to me. They look too vertical in proportion to the front fender arches. If you compare the rear arch with the front arch, the front arch goes in at a gentler angle. The rear arch looks almost vertical in comparison.

Sure looks nice overall. A few things jump out at me though.

1. Can you put a rear brake light that low? It has one on the rear diffuser. I'd expect that to make it to the trunk lid for production.
2. I don't think the front splitter will make it onto the production model. It sticks out too far and is too pointy. Laws say that will hurt pedestrians.
3. The wing obviously won't make it to production.
4. The car HAS NO SIDE MIRRORS!

A good looking car imo.

only thing i don't like is the wings. a nice little lip spoiler would be nice though. :)

They have to have something on the car that tells people it is a Subaru.

LOL

I don't like the BRZ in that color or with the ridiculous wing. I kinda agree with Semtex that the rear fender arch doesn't look right compared to the front... it's less curvy.

But overall it's a good looking car. I imagine if they don't screw it up too badly from concept to production the car that actually hits the lots will look good in other colors.

I'm waiting on production version, and possibly the Sti version to follow. If it's Miata weight with WRX Sti power and that sleek aerodynamic body...

Is good

:iagree: it does seem out of place.. BUT perhaps there is an aerodynamic benefit?
