These windows look very familiar

Did you see Top Gear tonight. They drove a Mitsuoka Orochi. It's side windows looked very familiar! They have an offset at the top. Interesting.



Quote from their website 'The Orochi is Mitsuoka's range of retro designs based on modern cars. The Orochi first appeared as a 2001 concept car, and from the looks of things, the production vehicle stays very true to the concept of efficiency and ease of use. The Orochi was introduced at a press conference that opened with a Kabuki show in 2001 where a white model of the sports car was driven onstage. The Orochi produces around 230 horsepower and uses a Toyota 5-speed automatic. This is a car that speaks of exclusivity. The Orochi's design approach is to vividly and directly appeal to one's sight, spirit and sensitivity.'

Lol! Smart ass. I believe he was wanting us to say "Those windows are like SVX windows!"...

Re: These windows look very familiar

Actually there is a surprising number of cars that have used the window in window concept.
Here's another popular (well almost as popular as the SVX) car....
Arthur.
