My idea for a new Capri

[Slavvy]

I was talking with a friend about how it would be neat if Ford Australia remade the Capri. I decided to sketch out what I thought it'd look like. I tried using traits from the current Falcon model. I picture this thing weighing about 1300-1400 kg and using the Mondeo V6 or even the turbo engine from the XR6. A sporty, powerful fastback coupe that isn't as expensive as a euro but larger and more sophisticated than a ricer. Here's a rough sketch, tell me what you think guys:

raise the beltline of the window be level with or even a tad above the bottom of the windshield, make the wheel wels larger and put some aggressively sized rims on it and it would be very cool. I'm liking the headlight/front grill you have going on.

are the headlights from bmw?
and the back remains me a aston martin db7

Lights are from a Ford Falcon, taillights are sort of a hybridised shape...rest of the car is pretty much original, though when I look at it the front looks a lot like a cosworth. Here's a falcon:

Hi there!Nice scatch but it doesn't really look like the good old Capri.All the remakes of old cars are made to look like they did in the past.Take for example Mustang 2005 or Challenger.Thats why I think that putting headlights with such a "new" shape like those from the Falcon doesn't work...maybe it's because I'm a fan of old cars. As for the back...the shape looks nice but I can't tell about rear lights 'couse i can't see them.

Don't dig up old topics, thanks!
