Mukha ngang H3 ang target niya. But if they do use the anemic old Ford V6 3.0, beh... that thing deserves a newer motor. Maybe a diesel lump from Volvo would do.

Not far from the drawing eh?

I wonder how much of the concept will they put on the production car?

just guessing...

> LED head lamps (still not yet a mainstream feature even in high-end cars)
> LED tail lamps might stay though... lots of cars are already using those
> integrated twin tail pipe & rear skid plate will have to go
> front bumper will be replaced with a more sedate version (plus a non-LED fog lamps)
> aluminum front grille is almost there... just delete the twin air intakes
> smaller wheels & tires... 16" or 17"
> those gold colored wheels is a no go
> i highly doubt that the blue-colored trim will make it... aluminum is a safe choice
