I actually like it! It needs a different name though. The back end sorta looks like a porsche though, not that I don't like porsches.

first picture looks like an s2000
second picture looks like the back of the audi le mans or whatever its called now
as for the third picture......those a/c vents look a little familiar.

but overall i think its a good looking car. im curious to see what they do with it. personally i still think the saturn sky is amazing

It looks like an S2000 that's getting a rectal exam by a doctor with really big hands.:gay:

Actually looks pretty good to me. The whole interior looks strangely familiar though... looks like the mustangs!! The wheel, vents, e-brake, big 'ol silver dash...

Looks better than the Razor concept, but Dodge needs to start toning down the front end - starting to get "riddikulus"!

Looks good but should not be named anything near the Plymouth Duster/Dodge Demon

recipe for a Miata/Solstice type car by Dodge:

1 - Dodge Viper front end
1 - 350Z roadster rear end (Audi TT roadster can be substituted if suitably creased and folded)
1 - Mustang silver IUP dashboard
1 - Mustang IUP steering wheel
1 pinch BMW Z4 body side sculpturing
1 pinch Honda s2000 proportions

Combine ingredients and mix thouroughly . Cover with orange glaze. Serves 2.

i must say these days it is hard to come up with true new shapes. at least to do so while staying complient to laws, aero, safety, and other concerns. so every new car for a long time is going to look like something else. just my .02

I like it. A little brutish, but cool looking--though the profile could use some polish. I dunno if I dig the downward slope from the front fender to the top of the vent. Maybe if the vent were taller and the line came off the top of the vent to the bottom of the front fender?

All right but nothing great, just doesn't quite gell, stylingwise really. Kinda of blobby and soft overall rather than taught and athletic. Lines sag towards the rear ending in a 350Z'ish J-Lo butt. Dead rear looks OK though, with sharp, angular lines but the haunches are soft, droopy and rounded. Basically, the exterior seems an ungainly amalgam of styling cues that, individually, are interesting, but together are just a bit of an awkward jumble.

Interior pretty nice though, clean, simple, businesslike, perfect for a sports car.

If they replaced the front with a miniaturized ME 4-12 type deal, I think the design would look far more cohesive.

Looks like an S-duece refresh, and yeah - a Mustang interior.

The car is pretty sweet... but I agree about the name. Should have been called something else

First thought when I saw the first pic, a s2000 and a 350z had a love child. I acctually like it though, sorta...
