how come all these new concept cars have such a big face/nose these days? look at the new Skyline GTR concept, compared with all the other concepts, they all look alike.

Yeah, definitely don't like the front end. I think the last-gen Honda Prelude started it all with those headlights that went more vertical than horizontal. Since then I've seen more and more vertical headlamps, and this concept just takes it to an extreme. Maybe it'll grow on us, like a lot of other weird stuff.

I personally love this car from every other angle -- it feels very fast already. GIMME!

that shape seems very much like an airfoil...i'd be suprised if it didn't create more lift than most cars. Why don't they make cars in a reverse-airfoil shape, with the driver near the CG? I guess that's why we love mclarens

This has no doubt to be the best concept car I've seen in a few years ...

Fact is, in these type of cars ... You don't need to look simply because you'll be seen by everyone around you on the road. And if someone wants to be a prick, they won't allow you to pass without some difficult manouvering if traffic starts to clog up.

damn, it looks like a armored vehicle that could have guns stick out the side and kill people. The description: "...a modern, futuristic mix of GT40, Stratos, Batmobile and Millennium Falcon...
