Didn't see this one before:

Interesting lines on the car, especially the side cutouts and rear end. Looks vaguely familiar... Thought you would enjoy!

PS. And yes, I am VERY fired up about driving the SRT at VOI!

That is scary and worst of all it is in red. Someone needs to get a full view of that car and put it next to the SRT/10 to see what the similarities are? Any of our friends in the UK able to help?

Wow! That sure looks like design plagiarism to me. Put a crosshair nose on it and your pretty much there. Anyone have any additional pic views?

No. I'm saying exactly the opposite.

Oh man...that is shocking...

Those appear to be the EXACT lines the SRT is using....

So, wait--we've been saying it's a japanese design--I guess we were wrong all along! It's a limey car!

Wow...I give up. Even this car did the facsia better than the SRT.

Sigh...I guess the SRT is ugly. I cannot deny it any longer. I'm going over to the dark side.

These posts made me curious about the rest of the car, so I dug up the following pictures of the Caterham 21:

It looks more Corvette C3 than anything else in my eyes. THe front-end looks like a previous model lotus elise. The rear-end looks a lot like an RT/10's, but then again, the Viper concept was out in '89.
