Spider inspired Webasto concept

Post by velozi »

I think it looks great and you can see a lot of 124 design in it.

Pretty interesting. The top and the head rests are weird. Is this car linked to Chrysler?

Are the "the masses" going to remember the 124 spider's lines with this new car. That was over 30 years ago. What is the marketing strategy now? I don't see ANY link to the classic 124 with the new 500. Call me .. old fashioned.

It looked vaguely familiar to this car that I designed in 2000 for my computer desktop...they did a nicer job though.

Nope, I like yours better Serge. Although I'd like to see it keep the round headlights.

IMO that new design is too chunky in the nose and mid section.
Kinda like how they made the new Camaro look too fat.

There was a Fiat Barchetta at FFO,that shares some lines with that car.It does look like it mated with one of the new fatty Camaros :lol:

Looks like it's a bit harder to raise the roof at the traffic lights from the driver's set compared with our originals!
