Looks like some serious photoshop on those windows... but still looks good. Guess they had grafxwerks do some badge overlays for that one too! No roofrack crossbars either!

like it said it was "the GT prototype some styling features and equipment may change". ie the crossbars for the roof rack, the overlays on the badges, the deep fake tint;), and those rims (which are aftermarket but i cant remember the company who made them)

sweeet. at my parents house i have an issue from Car and Driver where they compared the vibe to the saturn vue since they were just both coming out and it was the beginning of the crossover erai would have rather seen that orange or a yellow available along with the fusion than the envy green. envy was the worst possible name for that shade. i passed by an envy vibe w/ tint last week, the tint made it a lil better but it was still gross.
