Anyone else see this Sonic on the CarID site?

Not sure if this was posted on another thread but I saw this pic on the CarID site and it made me cry with jealousy.

I love the detailing of the red with the red rims.

Most of all I love the addition of the spoler on top of the rear spoiler.

Thoughts?

Not there, but I did see it at the NAIAS in Detroit last January and pictures of it in other sites on the internet.

Is it just me, or does that spoiler-on-a-spoiler look kinda, well, too stupid for words?

I like it .
At least it dresses up the ass of the hatch back a little . But I would have solid mount incorporating the spoiler thingy on the back in stead of just bolting one on .

Yep. That's the original Z-spec concept that was shown at the Detroit NAIAS last year. Anyone else notice the Pedders suspension decal?

Which probably would have looked good, and certainly would look better than the ricey as hell setup it currently has. I mean, wing spoilers are for downforce. When you put downforce on rear wheels, it's to cure oversteer. FWD cars dont oversteer (in anything resembling a normal cornering effort). Therefore putting an ostentatious rear wing on an FWD car screams "I HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO MAKE A CAR FAST, BUT IF IT LOOKS FAST IT MUST *BE* FAST, RIGHT?"

Can you tell I hate things that are added to make a car "look" fast, but that in actuality have no benefit or even hurt performance? That's what I mean by "ricey."

Just you! But to each his own.

Half of it!
