    It's a combination of both. The exterior styling is on par with the VX (if a decade or so late), but the interior styling of that Kia and most other vehicles these days has simply surpassed the garden variety interior that was settled for in the VX.

    Not always. Wasn't the Dodge Viper pretty close to the concept?



    And I think Isuzu did a concept in 1993... (Can't remember what it was called.)

    The VX is one prototype that I think got better looking with the final production model.

    Oh cmon, you pick perhaps the 5 out of 1,000 that actually fit the bill.

    I just wish this one would actually be legit....
