Nice packaging but to compete with Caterhams, Nobles, Atoms, etc. it should be alot better than it is…looks a bit rough in the details.

Not sure which side of the line between “car” and “kit car” it falls on.

I have to agree with some people that the car is definately ugly. Sorry Gembala. However, anyone who thinks this car does not have enough horsepower is very wrong. The new corvette, standard C6 version, weighs around 3300-3500 pounds I believe. That car is already fast at 400 horsepower. Now shave off around 1300-1500 pounds, and your acceleration, handling, and braking will be incredible, let alone how fast that car will be.

Not enough power?

V8 and 2000lb.

I dont like it. Not enough power, not enough good looking, not enough car.

I like the concept of getting to choose between 4, 6, and 8 cylinder engines, allowing those who want low weight and low power to get what they want, and those who want bigger power but have to sacrifice a few more pounds to get it to get what they want. Unfortunately I dont like how it looks, something about it doesnt work, the most obvious ‘not working’ part being the rear. it just looks thrown together.

Looks dated. And the coarse look of the whole thing makes it look like some sort of kit-car.

It’s a Ferrari that melted in the sun!
Look, its nose melted and drooped!
And look, its tailights melted and drooped unevenly!

A little too kit-car-ish.

Could even imagine a Fiero under those body panels.

I love it.

But I would like to have this one more:

The Superformance Daytona Coupe, the ultimate kit car.

As I mentioned before, it’s almost a coupe version of the Renault Spider.

I kind of like it. Small manufacturer, low weight, different engine choices. I wish the the majors would get the idea that not everyone wants some overstuffed pig of a car weighing 3800 lbs.

What the hell?!? What kind of a bug did they squash to produce this thing? It looks like mix between a Ford GT and a Porsche 911 gone horribly wrong.

Looks unfinished – gaps in the body panels are wide and uneven in places and the technology behind it is uninspiring.

Next…

Renault Spider on steroids.
