If only the back didnt look like a mutation of the Chevy Crossfire and Cayman. But initially review indicates that the handling smokes all the other performance saloons, and the interior is so premium it could rival a Bentley. Just initial words, we'll wait for the final test. Look out for test in Autocar/TopGear/Evo ;) somehow, the front looks like the Corvette, especially viewed from the front third-quarter.
