Default Kia GT4 Stinger
Surprised this hasn't shown up here yet. Personally, I find this a LOT more relevant to my wants/needs and sense of fun than any 620hp 3400 lb. Z06!

315hp, rwd, manual transmission, 2874 lb. (not exactly a lightweight, but similar to the s2000 anyway!).

Unfortunately, "there are currently no plans to bring the concept to production."

Hopefully they'll MAKE some damn plans...

I love the specs and idea of a 2+2, but I don't care for the design.

It reminds me of Princess Leia when she dressed up like a bounty hunter in Return of the Jedi lol

Lamborghini started out making tractors. Kia has come a long way in a short amount of time in this country.

From a design standpoint it's perfect. I love it.

I like the idea behind it, and the general proportions of the car. I'm not crazy about how it looks and feel it needs more flair. But remember, the S2000 went through some odd stages too.
