I have been quite generous with TVR styling, but have they gone 1 too far this time??

Me thinks that this is a race car not a production car.

I like it, very original, nice overall lines, and very impressive drivetrain. Theres a few little details I dont like but not enough to turn me off from the car.

In the words of the immortal Mr. Horse - No Sir, I don't like it.

As I wrote earlier in another thread:
she really rocks me off my feet 8)
No Ferrari, Lambo, Porker, Maser or Aston for me but a TVR Sagaris
So Santa: please :lol:

I don't like it. The vents all over the bonnet, that weird perspex screen on the rear, the exhaust sticking out sideways and that hideous diffusor at the rear totally ruin its looks. I like the T350C much better.

The way TVR went with its designs is something I totally disagree with. The Tuscans aren't my favorites either. The best looking TVR to date is still the Griffith IMO. Close second and third are the Cerbera and the classic Griffith. TVR should go back to more clean and simple lines instead littering their cars with this misplaced futuristic details.

This is brutal, beautiful even if it's not elegant at all, Must be a challengo to drive, it's like it's born in hell and then is here to shock our minds...

In an off way, with the added grilling on the hood, it's like they skinned a large shark, and shoved a TVR frame in it :)

It doesn't strike me as well as, say, a Tuscan R/S does. Maybe a bit more radical than I'm used to seeing from TVR, with their normally clean lines. Might take a while for me to get to like the shape.

Saw it at MPH 03 yesterday, loooks fantastic in real life!!! Its one of those marmite things aint it, u either love it or loath it!!!! I agree with the fact that the rear diffuser looks a but out of place, and the rear wing looks different in perspex, but thats what tvr are all about! Being different! Cant wait to see and hear a racing GT version, if they replace the tuscan with it!

The basic design looks great. But the many add-ons ruins the show. If it is a race version, that's OK... It looks like a ricer, although I'm that less scoops and holes everywhere would give that model a pure and sleek line.... and then I would like it.

Looks agressive. I like those looks.

As usual TVR has made no compromises and I think it's leaves no question what this car is all about. Speed and eating the tarmac as a ferocious wild animal! Indeed the rear diffusor is a bit odd, but I love the looks. Why go for a traditional look while they have never gone for that. So yep, it's got my thumbs up!!

the basic looks are good i think... but all the vent have gone too far. i love my tvrs but they are meant to be rounded moulded beasts not civics with fronts bars and bonet scoops

it looks as if they gave it to a 16 ricer boy with 500 grand to rice it up
