the front looks allmost exactly like the KZ1 attack. The back, which they didn't copy, looks like shit!!

all in all though, I hope they produce this! Change is good. Even if I doubt it can give the same satifaction as a free revving ferrari engine.

This is one of the prettiest cars I've seen in a while. There were some concepts that showed a car very similar to that. This is the ONLY Hybird I'd own. It looks amazing, but I dont think sound would be something you'd crave for.

Not bad, but when you turn on a supercar, you want a guttural rumbling sound, not an electronic whir.

i think everyone should begin to admit that it is time to sell more hybrid cars than conventionnal cars.toyota began in that way with the prius and will go on with it.there is also an another hybrid supercar but this one is electric :it is the venturi

The only problem with a Hybrid sports car is it's weight... A real performance car doesnt have 100lb batteries in the trunk.

And why three seats? Two will suffice. And is a central driving position all that safe? I mean, we drive on one side of the road for a reason.

... and you always have those cds with engine sounds to play as soundtrack while driving!!
LOL!

The idea isn't bad, but it doesn't do it for me. I like engine sounds. Real engine sounds.

It's designed by the Italians, not built by them.
Exactly. If the Japanese designed it, Toyota would have ended up with this.


...wait, it did!
