Too retro squashed by a foot look. Roof lines and rear glass are crap! Hood is nothing special - inlets too wide apart. Front quarters need more definition - sense of purpose/flow to the nice door & rear lines
A lot of good qualities and redeeming lines. Front clip a big step up! Doors & rear quarters look really nice
They atleast better build it on the LS platform or something equally as well rounded (I.E. something NEW!)

I would buy that car in a heartbeat. It is frigging badass. Looks like my dad's 67. Too cool.

That is not what it is going to look like, but sounds like a lot of you like it.
I must be too young...or too Japanese?
