apparently, Tom Cruise had a say in the design of the car.

he requested it look as though "its moving backwards"

The car does look backwards. I don't understand why the rear fender openings face the front, unless there's a radiator buried there somewhere. Maybe turbulence effects from the spinning wheel?

I think they're trying too hard to attenuate the marque's conservative image. All techno and no elan.

Well, at least it's mid-engine.

Well he likes it up the tailpipe anyway, so that's not too surprising.

And Red-NJs - okay I won't tell you that I wouldn't want to drive it. :P
