I'm liking that.

Touch of a very old Datsun or Celica at the back though. Know what I mean? Cant remember the model name.

Front looks like a cross between a Ford Capri and a Morris Marina.

After Hamster had that green abomination (colour, I mean), I'm sure that the new one will drive better.

IIRC, he said that the handling was "interesting" to say the least!!!

Is this the new Hillman Avenger?

I don't like some of these retro-rehashes. It seems far too tall in profile. I've seen SUVs with a lower front and side profile

The American car industry has gone all retro largely I feel as it's run out of ideas. That's not to say the retro cars don't look good as many of them do but they prove that the US car industry pulled up it's creative drawbridge about 30 years ago...

Thumbs up

Hey - look at 95% of cars on the road in the US. They're hideous, wallowing buckets, and there's no shadow of doubt that the reason they don't come over here is because they are totally crap. This retro-car movement is a big, BIG improvement on the dross they've served up to their public in the last 30 years.

At least these retro-cars, whether you like them or not, will bring a bit more passion into the US car market, and hopefully that will be better for everyone in the long term. The cars are getting to the point now where there is an international interest. OK partly that's due to nostalgia, but nowt wrong in that.

I love the look of that orange beast from profile, and especially front aspect (angry attitude ). The rear leaves something to be desired, that's for sure.

so long as it stays im America it'll be fine.

American cars and European roads / fuel prices don't mix.
