Ugly for sure. But the fact that they can come up with 552 HP and be work towards being environmentally friends is pretty exciting news. shows you don't have to sacrifice performance. But yea, the styling is pretty bad.

Yeah, I think it's a great thing that they've been able to create such power while still being green. Maybe AC and the guys at Vorsteiner should team up to make a powerful car that is actually appealing to people.

Both the exterior (grill, fin spoiler, everything really) and the interior are hideous...I started double checking to make sure this wasn't a photoshoped joke...

Claimed performance is exceptional...
