Dunno if anyone has seen this before but damn :( It's the Electra-II concept. The legacy version of the Electra-One

The Electra-One concept actually went to production as the s201. The Electra-II used a 2.5 litre engine in 1999!
They both make me want to ralph, but they're supposed to be super fast. Theoretical top speeds of 186 mph and 174 mph respectively.

Oh, I dunno, I don't think the Electra-II looks too bad. I don't really like the head lights or the big wing but beside that it looks pretty damn good. I'm not sure how much I like the front bumper but I like the monster hood scoop. Hell, that wing would probably even be functional at 170+ mph! ;)

I don't really like the Electra-I at all though. That front end is ugly.

yeah anything those type of lights touch turn ugly. I like the rest of it though, especially that hood scoop.

The Electras body kits are completely functional, from front lip spoiler to rear wing and everything inbetween. It's part of the reason they can go so damn fast. I personally think that scoop looks like ass. The rear of these cars are much worse than the fronts, visually anyway. The other thing that makes it just look like ass is the fact that the aero packages are a different color from the car. That said, I'd kill someone to drive either of these :D

I like it. Those headlights put out a good beam because they are projector beams. I wonder if they have halos?

It's possible to make crappy projector beams.

HID isn't necessarily better than Halogen.

For the price....it better be. Shit...It should be able to cook steaks on it and then clean itself.

I like the lines of the ElectraII. Not really the bumper though, or the side skirts. I don't think the wing looks TO horrible though definately to tall, but I really like the wheels on both models.

Those headlights look like something morette would put out for the Legacy. /attractive.

On the ElectraI, I like the wheels and grille. That's really about it.

I hate those headlights. And I'd rather have a more subtle wing or no wing at all. The body kits need to calmed down a little too. Visually they are too busy, but if they really are all function I could live with that.

Who reads Japanese?
