I kinda like it. Much better than the stuff GM has been pumping out.
Greenhouse gases.... well, people burn those all sorts of ways. Cars are just one.
Backup lights... tough to say. They could have designed it so that the taillights had clear lenses and red LEDs. Then white LEDs inside. Maybe that cost too much so they can to cut the concept. That said, jdc, how often do you design a concept that doesn't match the final output? Yeah, I know they could have done it better, but I can bet you've had to make design adjustments at the last minute that messed up a design. I love it when legal disclaimers get added 10 minutes before the files go to press.
Proportions... the car is a little tall, but it's not supposed to be a replica. I think overall it looks pretty good. I've seen a few in person. They look much better than many other cars being made today.
Is it really based on an XLR? I thought the XLR was based on the Corvette.
