Harry P. Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Doesn't work for me. Don't like the narrow nose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Handley Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 That is an interesting vehicle, could be interesting seeing them make it road legal though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shafter44 Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 The Deltawing was the only reason I started following sports car racing again. The approach they took reminded me of the days when racers thought outside the box and really did advance automotive design. That said this is probably the ugliest street car I have seen since Pontiac went under, but I do applaud the effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a cheap 3-wheeler kit-kar body from the late '70s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy Ed Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I really don't care for the Tudor Series Racer and this even less. Anyone else reminded of the Top Gear episode with the Robin Reliant when looking at this ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roadrunner Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I have to say that it leaves me cold. Reminds me of a soap box derby car I built as a kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZTony8 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I liked the idea of the race car and it's fresh thinking-even if it's turned out to be less than a winner.But that street version is just bloated and ugly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deathgoblin Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Weirdly, I kinda like it. At least it's not a sedan or a crossover of some kind, like every OTHER car manufacturer is making now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
