Wow, you're right, that is horrible looking. The only thing cool on that car is the intake, and if you look at the pics, the hood doesnt even fit it right.

They showed that one on a recent episode of "American Muscle Car" on speed. I'm glad to see they're back in business but I'll stick with their older work.

It's a pathetic attempt to capitalize on the pro-touring fad and the Baldwin/Motion name. And it's hideous and way over the top. But I also don't see how they or Joel Rosen can attempt to use the "Baldwin" name involved in this since that was just the Chevrolet dealership that he used to order cars through. This car has nothing to do with Baldwin, but Joel allows(get paid) them to use the "Motion" name. Way overpriced and not even enjoyable to look at!

saying baldwin is "back in business" is misleading. the original baldwin performance people do little more than lend their name to the new crap for a handsome fee.

Like: The 2nd-gen Corvette hood styling, coupe interior

STRONGLY DISLIKE: The execution of the Ford Cobra-type seats/rollbar/bubble behind the occupants on the body, that particular shade of yellow, and the way the hood and deck lid go up on some weird scissor hinge nonsense.

Like it's already been said: A few good ideas, but nah.
