A coupe version of the Cruze, called "Monza" would be sweet.

From what I understand they said the cars were to be in the GM museum....but none of 'em are to the best of my knowledge.

The lines look like a 1 series (imo), which is a good thing.

fixed.

Car looks interesting though, with an LNF or a LLT under the hood it would be right there with the genesis coupe, 330i's, and all that stuff.

Doubt you'd get a GM car with such a short front overhang. Looks like a RWD car, so the fact that it'd be FWD disappoints me.

Well we just got the car a couple of months ago. its now being stripped down to the bare minimum and we are selling all the parts we dont need. most of the car will be fiberglass, yes you can still buy fiberglass parts brand new. Car will probably take a year and a half to build. i will post pictures when its done.
Here is the start
