Default Morgan EvaGT

AutoBlog

"The Morgan Motor Company has been making new cars all along, but some people seem to have forgotten that fact as most of their "new" models looked a heckuva lot like their old models. That started to change with the introduction of their Aero cars a few years ago – and we predict the name "Morgan" will be a little more common once their latest concept hits showrooms. The company took the wraps off their new EvaGT in Pebble Beach on Sunday, right in front of the Pebble Beach Lodge on the concept lawn of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. We had seen a partial sketch a few weeks ago, but holy wow is this car stunning in person. There's a full press release after the jump and a gallery of high-res pics for you too, but the basic stats are these: It uses a 3.0-liter BMW straight six that produces 306 horsepower, a six-speed automatic or manual transmission, weighs just 2,755 pounds, gets 40 miles per gallon (Imperial) and can scoot from 0-60 in 4.5 seconds."

So much better looking than the old (crosseyed) Morgan imo.

beautiful car...something about the wheels (although I am sure they are high quality) looks a little cheap on this body...looks a little bit too much like a tuner wheel.

Someone tell that guy holding the coffee to button his shirt. He's taking away from the car.

Cool looking car. I like the ingenuity of the tail lights, but they don't look right for some reason.

I am pretty sure they are fake (painted on).

You're right - it is. I checked it out. I stand by the statement though!
