Spyker Saab 9+ tribute

drugmirko · #1 03-10-2010, 05:47 PM

well... I sincerely doubt that this is the right thread for this, cause I doubt that it has anything to do wit Saab or Spyker at all, but the site is french and I can't speak french... and right now, I'm not in the mood for battling with lousy online translations

.
I'm posting it in here simply because it's kind of nice effort and more people will see it here, than in some of the design section threads... but move it if necessary

and here's the french article's url:
http://blogautomobile.fr/saab-spyker...e-beaute-54135

in case somebody is in the mood for translating it more than me and discovering what all this is about...

Eh, like the Aero X concept way better. This one looks like it was sketched up by some amateur. By the way, anyone know something about this?

I believe I read somewhere that it's just an artist's joke and you can buy them to stick over your normal Saab badge.

Reminds me very, VERY much of this:

God, I was in love with the Audi Avus as a kid. Has to be my favorite of my 1/18 scale models.

Looks like the Mitsuoka Orochi got a Swedish citizenship.

ditto ^

anyone else think the topic car is what a Mazda could look like if their designers got off drugs?

Now that you mention it, yes. That nose would be much preferable to the clown face and the simplicity of form would be a definite improvement over the grafting on of lines for the sake of surface excitement.

Very clean. Looks great in grey, not so good in white though, somehow.
