The concept I saw, I think it was in last months Automobile mag, showed the coupe as a split window (think 63), and it looked great!

The rear end looks great... about as good as I could imagine myself.

The front end just doesn't look right. The grill looks very cheap and poorly thought out. Almost a hint of some sort of cheap aftermarket add-on.

It looks like it might have LED headlights? I liked the look of the C6 headlights better... almost Ferrari-like. These look more bland in terms of the housing, although if they're LED then that's very cool. I guess they put those 'vents' there to dress up the area around the lights because otherwise it would look even more bland.

Overall I'm giving the back an A and a the front a C-. Fix the grill and the front could be a B. Figure out a way to make the headlamp housings look nicer and it could be an A.

I have to imagine these pics come out 2 years early for exactly this reason... to gauge reactions.

Front screams Ferrari 458. The headlight intakes are blatant and the wide grinning maw makes it worse.
