... remember once upon a time, when form followed function?

Prius Hot Hatch.
Three great words that go great together...
Just like Mostly Peaceful Protest, or Intellectual Trump Supporter.

Are flaccid, egg-shaped 2+2 people haulers a 'thing" with the LeMans crowd?
I guess knocking off two of the doors and putting wings and whatever the hell those horizontal surfaces are on the car's nose are, are intended to make it a 'performance car?'
As a retired squid who (some say) earned a USN Submarine Qualification Badge I mildly resent the idea of this car's front fender art being referred to as 'diving planes.'
Since I'm not presently a member of the "Prius Community" I will defer to those with more skin in the game as to the appropriateness of this napkin drawing.
While the Prius has LOOOOOOONG been in need of an amped-up 2-door, RWD, crop-topped version with some passing attempt at adult styling, I'm thinking that this probably isn't 'it.'

ACTUAL mileage will vary.

 

Sharp looking car!
