In a geometric angular way, it almost seems to be approaching the lines of the Ford GT (but I love our curves!).

They stay right where they are.
Take a look at the top photo. You can juuuuuuust make 'em out.
They look like they form the top edge of the rear of the car in that shot.


('Hard to tell from that angle, but, my guess is the doors open up conventionally for a few inches and THEN swing up with a slight "twist".)

Looks a lot like the late Saleen S5S Raptor concept, doesn't it? I like it, anyway.

they get sliced off.....:rofl

Most people look at the picture and appreciate the design and say WOW:eek.... then there is Frank who "dissects" it....

I didn't see that until you said it.

Unfortunately our lovely legislators wouldn't allow it on the roads - most concepts never make it.

It's a lovely looking beastie though. I wished lambo had made the Muira concept, that and the GT side by side would have been a sight.

I was going to say the same thing, and add that's why it is a prototype.:rofl

Looks like part Saleen S7 and Bugatti influences as well.
