Company boss, Danny Panoz, acknowledges that the Esperante is inspired by the classics. "A Brit will see Aston Martin in this car, an Italian will see Ferrari, while a German will see bits of BMW or Mercedes".

Sure, Danny, and that nose isnt inspired by a Porsche 911, no, not at all... :rolleyes:

well, maybe it isnt, in that its a 911 gone wrong... and those alloys have to go! I like this car a lot but the styling is bizarre
