Mechanics aside, it has some good styling points but overall I have to agree with the Gremlin comment. It also reminds me of the Z3 coupe in some ways which looks really odd. The molded 3 exhaust tips don't do it for me either.

I believe the "Slingshot" is a coupe version of the upcoming Razor.
While the Slingshot might be more production ready I think its more of a disguise to cover up the new convertible.

Ya, I figured someone would drop something like this on me...

I'm not a classic British car fan, to be honest...
As for the '53 Vette... point taken, but at 150hp, it had 60 percent more horsepower than this........ 51 years ago
Sorry, I had to bust on ya a little there, Darth, but I don't think anyone can say that Triumphs, MGs, Austin Healey's and the like aren't "sports cars" and many of them were well under 100 horses. There's an argument to be made that the definition of Sports Car has changed over the years to include "fast" and "powerful" which those cars weren't, but they are the cars that defined the term "sports car" originally.
