I like the side look, but the rear looks terrible IMO.

Find a V6 or Formula rear hatch. Lightweight and it won't look neutered

That is what I was going to say. You need to put the spoiler back on for just the looks if nothing else.

Looks like a cross between a Ferrari Maranello and a Ford Taurus rear from the side, but I bet it'll pull closer to the Ferrari!

Looks exactly like a wingless ford probe from the side, almost the exact same body line!

Put it back on.
