The only amazing aspect of this car is the color of the paint. The front looks like a new Camaro and I'm not even sure what they tried to do with the rear but the thing is ugly. The side sculpting is also way overdone solely for the purpose of being different. Side sculpting should flow with the aerodynamic flow or at least try to capture it (for engine/parts cooling purposes) but in this car its just there. Many articles are comparing it against the R8... there is no comparison.
