    Now, if the two rear doors could be operated by the driver, like the wing on the Coupe, they could be used independently for better cornering. :cornut:

    Yep with all the horsepower that 3 cyl will have best bolt them wheels on extra strongly. :smilewinkgrin:

    If the F'ing 56 comes out looking like that it would not be a bad thing.

    I like that body design too. Very nice, but I won't need those doors after I take the rear seat out. :Thumbsup:

    Dang, I'm modding it and they haven't even built it yet. :lol:

    I love the seat-belts the rear passengers trip over.

    That is a great photo....
