Well, lets see. That looks like about 16 out of a possible 18 that think it stinks. If STS builds more that one, .........................they'll have two!

So...If the STS mounts in the rear could you mount a Supercharger in the front ?

Assuming Forged parts etc. 1000HP without any other mods??

In general, I'm not a fan of using a supercharger/FI on a stock, cast-piston engine. The exterior styling is better than some I've seen...I like the louvered hood. The car definitely has some appeal but that said, I wouldn't buy one.

The whole front end just looks "off"...way too heavy at the outside corners........the rear fenders look OK compared to some others in that vein that I've seen......and we need to see that "upgraded" interior too....that car is probably way more expensive than a ZR1, AND will have no resale value to speak of.......I'll take a ZR1 long before I'd lay money down for this!!

It looks too fat, chunky & overdone.
The front grill is pathetic.

I really like the wheels - they'd look great on a nice black Z
