Well some will love it, others will hate it. Even I am unsure on the tail end at present. But here it is. Plus I was getting lazy by the back end pic on detail. I think it needs the Skyline style lights of my stage 2 kit.
Put a mark for me on the side of the ones that love it... Very Ferrari-ish in the front. And I actually like the back too, but I don't believe I have seen the back shot for your Stage II design. Anyway, I may have to rethink selling my 88 coupe now! Gotta have something to build this thing on when the day comes.. Now you just need to name it and come up with a very cool emblem to put on the front.

They are Holden Commodore. The front is highly modified Ferarri. Different grill shapes and sizes, new lights and indicators, different number plate area etc.

Well it will be made if my wife has her way Stage-2GT. She got real interested in having a Fiero of her own after seeing that. Mind you money will be the deciding factor. How much stuff I sell in the next year and whether I have made enough to support development.
The targa support system I was kinda hoping someone with a USA targa or convertible would post some pictures of the underside. I know what it would take to make it legal in my state. But with 52 American states I think it will need to be damn tough to meet everyones registration requirements.
An X member, plating/boxing of existing chassis parts is what I had in mind.

You had an swesome idea for the front clip of the stage 2 body kit. It would be cool to give this car a little identification and recognize it as a pontiac by somehow mating that front end to this car. And money permitting I will buy one of these if they ever come out.

Is that the original roofline? The windsheild seems to have a different angle to me.. and the rear view makes it look like the roof width has been shortened to give the top of the car that more sporty rounded look. Is this going to be a "no cutting" rebody, or are changes to the top of the car planned (since you'll be making it a targa, anyway..)?
Sorry to be the critical one -- though I very much like the idea.

Hey, Aus, I love it!!! It looks like some of the body is very similar to the Fino/Finale that Archie sells. But I like your front end and tail light treatment MUCH better. Maybe you should partner with Archie on this to cut down on development costs? If you made new taillight and front end clips for an existing kit, that should save you lots of development time and money - not to mention fewer molds to make....
