resurfaced

That pic was floating around months ago in another thread. It was said to be a photoshopped image, but what a nice concept.

wow

I do have to say, that would be the most gorgeous convertible made since the 1960s... even with a realistic windshield. DAMN that's nice, with the hard cover in the back, rather than the folded top. If they can pull this off, they'll have a buyer in Texas. I do worry a bit about luggage space, but screw the luggage. ...As long as they give us a proper cup holder.
Texan. Goofy. Sometimes witty. Pacifist. Imperfect, nice guy. Trying.

they'd better pull there fingers out, as Ford will be taking orders on their new 'StreetKa' which in conv form looks pretty good. If they can produce a MINI like the pic (or near it at least) then they will steal orders off of the likes of Peugeot & Ford.

The image shown here does look photoshopped for some reason, but rest assured, it is basically a picture of the concept car.
Looks like a childs pedal version of it actually!!
