from the side it looks like a bmw 1 series sportshatch with a bit different nose and air intake

from the rear it looks weird, the area between the taillights just looks wrong
and it looks like the panel gap is a problem as well.

It's an abomination , doesn't even have a long or flat storage floor.. cause there's an engine in the way.

Shooting brakes have always been front engines for a good reason
This is a clear case of form over function instead of the form follows function that is a shooting brake.

I like it and the concept. Need to see inside pics though. And a different color.

that really looks great... I honestly don't think Porsche themselves could have done much better

This is more my style. Like I said above, I'm completely the wrong demographic for the above, but this 356 wagon looks really good to me:

I've always been partial to Rudge wheels on early cars!

I do like the clown shoe.

The Z4 isn't bad, but not as good as the Z3.

I think the car is at the university in Eindhoven.

Maybe there are photos online.
