Great pics Erik. The bulge in the fenders is pure f*cking 2000GT, I love that. The rear is a bit much, the tails are almost too curved.
Even though it will be a Scion, I still want one of these, provided it's at least as well-made and reliable as the 6GC. Lack of horsepower can be dealt with...

went to the show today, no picture will do justice to the color of the car, I can understand what Erik said about toning it down a little, but overall the car looks great,
wife liked it, so it all depends on price and engine specs, let's just hope toyota / scion doesn't drop the ball this time. --------------------  |

The two cars do look very similar, and the genesis has both a v6 or a turbo option. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

Still holding out that maybe just maybe Toyota/Scion will throw together a tour like the Genesis did and let people toss the car around.....

EU regulations state that the hood must be a certain height so that pedestrians will bounce off the car rather than get sliced in half by this car
