Funny you should say that...

From the designer:

Two years ago a Vector fan contacted me and asked if I would be interested in a redesign of an Vector.

I looked at this car and its story and I thought that it would be an interesting project.

It was only a self promotion work with the V8 Twin-Turbo as its result.

My intention was that its appearance would be realistic (not a crazy future design) and that it looked like a typical Vector.

Definitely Vector-ish. I know a guy in LA who has a white Vector that looks way too much like that...

personally I hate the vector design and think there are plenty of better options out there, but I'd take one if someone gave it to me

Front end reminded me of the 300ZX for some reason. The rest of the car screams Vector, with the rear end resembling the DB9.

Just looks cool, at best. Nothing that really gets my heart bumping.

When i first saw it that's the first thing I thought of, the 300zx.

In any case, I think it looks pretty sweet.

I like it, they just need to work on the front. Maybe they should just round it a little bit

looks like someone cross bred a countach, a 1st gen eclipse, and that ugly 300zx that was posted, the one with the ginormous body kit. yeah, definitely not a pretty car IMO.

Looks like it has a whale sharks mouth on the front
