I don't want to like this... ...but I keep looking at it and I like the lines.

Some of the trim and accents I don't favor, ut overall there's something there for me.

It seems very well done. It reminds me of a modern love child of a long hood and G-body.

But I'd not want "Tedson" or "Daydream" anywhere on the exterior of the vehicle.

It looks good, really good, but (to me) it just misses the cohesiveness of a Singer.
I thought it was interesting that the trunk and engine compartments were ignored in this short film, and "Tedson Daydream" isn't making me daydream of high concept cars.

It's nice and clean but missing something.

Maybe it's too soft.

My least favorite part is the front bumper.

I mean I'd take one but......

Mechanical stop watches? Strange addition in 2023. Not-useful bling.

Here's a few stills from a google search.





Good tires, but certainly not great tires.
