I highly dispute that assumption. They always tone down these engines when putting them on any other car....what makes you think they wouldn't do it here.

I guess so far in this thread I'll be the minority in saying this (oh well can't please everyone) but...I like it, and if they decide to build it, I would heavily consider buying it for a daily driver..
I kinda like it too. A coupe with, what looks to be, decent rear seat room. And a turbo-4? Fun and efficient!

Its not the ugliest car ive ever seen, but it definitely isnt pretty. It looks too much like they just threw 2 cars together, and not like it was actually designed

not a fan. Looks like a hard top convertible. But the top doesn't even come off... I suppose if you're going for rear headroom, but hate 4 doors, that's the car for you.

But really a 1 series looks better than this thing. It is super . I hope this not gonna happen. No matter what you name it, it is still . Maybe they can name it the "BARF". A good selling point would be the fact that, "it's so ugly, you could leave your key in the ignition and no one would steal it". Sorry not for me.

Looks like it was designed by the bean counters. Probably a collection of off the shelf parts from other stuff they got going. Bye-bye GM.

I could have sworn the write up says it's rear wheel drive and on the same platform as the ATS Caddy.
