Title: Lancia Delta concept car
Post by: Keith Large on 26 May, 2008, 11:57:40 AM
Hello one and all,
I found this site on the web today. I love this Delta concept, it would look good on my drive anyday of the week.   ;D   It is based on the Brera Alfa floorpan.

What do you think ?
best regards Keith

You might like it but I think it looks awful.  Much too much like the latest Skoda, ie, blocky with no detail, but the Skodas are meant to be utilitarean.  Then the paint job tries to slice up the slab sides and just makes the whole lot even worse.

So no thanks...

Neil

mmm, very nice, purposeful, she is like the real Delta 3 derivitive (ie not like a Skoda / Suzuki) we would expect. The other young lady is very nice also  ;)

I can't help thinking that one's just trying to outdo BMW with its Z cars; all bits ticking out all over.

Why can't Lancia just keep to making classy cars?  None of the latest crop from any manufacturer has any class at all.  My integrale may not handle as well or go as fast as an Impreza but, set side-to-side, evryone I've asked would prefer to drive off in the Lancia.

One problem is that now it is very easy to produce a 'classy' car, a Mondeo is now as good as a BMW and Kia offer all the goodies at a bargain price. What Lancia (Fiat) needs to do is use the brand to introduce leading edge technology. Allowing young engineers a free hand to shake off tradition. Simple really. Put your trust in the next generation.

Speaking as a youngster (cough!), then the next generation can have their turn after I've had my fun!

Enclosed is the image we all (i hope) would like the Delta 3 Integrale to look like, modern, aggressive looking, a big seller also.  ;D

That's getting more like it although the rectangular lower parts don't really go with the very rounded roof.  If those wheel arches were a bit more rounded I'd have to agree though.
