Different. Not sure if I like it or not, but then again I don't own it, so I don't have to.
Reminds me of the 'track packer' at Speedway Park (as it used to be) in SA. They had a HK sedan shortened so that the A and C pillars came together.

I just don't know. I think that the car needs to have a slightly longer wheelbase. The proportions just don't look right.

I kinda like it. The hips in the body line give it some nice character.
Im not sold on the wheelbase, but at least you dont have to worry about tailshaft vibrations at high speeds. Maybe somewhere in the middle, and keeping it a 5 seater would be a bit better.

Imagine how quick the circles would be in that thing

Yep, that's how I remember it.

In fact that pic is taken in my home town. The caravans on the headland in the background have now been replaced with much more aesthetically pleasing cabins and landscaping. If anyone might be interested; http://www.kiamacoast.com.au/Kiama_Harbour/
