Not for me. Front looks like a kia and the roof shape doesnt go with the rest of it.Wheels look like cheap aftermarket too.

It could grow on me, but inspiration for certain aspects (bonnet, grill and the overall angle of the frontage) seem to have come more from the E21 than the E30.
Anyway, unless they make it out of plastecine I can't see that front end passing pedestrian impact safety tests even in India !

nice one, as far as new modern cars go, i think that looks awsome-future retro look, not sure id own one, if it had the front end sorted and some proper older looking head lights, like twin e30 style square ones maybe, it would look nicer

I like that. From the side it looks more E28-esque than E30.

Have to agree, much more sharky than the e30.

I saw this on a website last month and there were pics of other cars in more colours. The one in grey/silver looked awesome. I love it. If I had the money I'd get a kit for mine.

I remember that. They took the chassis and running gear of an Impreza and put a mrk 2 golf body on top of it. Accept the bodywork chap went bonkers on it over night and made it look like a car out of a Pixar film...

not a shock, just a royal pain in the harris!
i remember him trying to justify a 318 engine over a 320 in the e36, and "porting" the plenum, what a tool, he should really stick to trolling the forums lol
