Nope. That last shape was okay but they don't do it for me.
The V6 chucks out cack power yet the car does around 20ish mpg - oh dear...

Don't think it's a GT4. Just a Celica.

Pyjamas are good. Managed many of those press ups yet?

coupe looks pretty good from here mind, although the only thing it shares with the aston is the tyre valves, and maybe the wiper fuse

Would look good without that silly droopy rear window, which looks like the silly droopy window on the Nissan 370z thing.
Still won't be nice to drive though, as per old Hyundai coupes.

I like it, it would look a lot more bland with the back window smoothed off IMO
Never really liked the drive of the older ones myself

The previous one was a styling rip off of Ferraris. The new one adds a bit of Toyota Celica edge to it. I quite like the look of the thing.
Shame they probably won't have a diesel of Petrol direct injection version of it. Though 2.5 litres with the right supercharger or a couple of tiddly turbos... It could be persuaded to go a bit faster, I'm sure.
