Taillights are a bit too small, ruins a nice overall shape/proportions.

Sedan is hot hot hot hot hot though

I like everything except that weird c-pillar window kink.

Quite nice indeed.   It certainly has some uniqueness to it.  Although jarring, I kinda dig the C pillar. 
Internal combustion thrust I trust

The G37 coupe is already a winner, no need for more.  The C-pillar is weird, and I am not diggin' it.

What you won't find in my car is a coffee, cigarette and a cell phone. What you will find is a driver; imagine that, a driver in a vehicle. What an effing concept!

I find the C-pillar strangely interesting.   Any word on pricing?

Interesting looking, to say the least. Almost hatch like 1/4 end. Probably looks better in real life.

I find the rear overhang a bit long.  Given the large-ish rear sheetmetal, the wheel openings look a little small.  The concept looks hot, and it's too bad the complex sheetmetal would probably be expensive to produce.

+1. Agree, the concept car is beautiful. Saw it at the Toronto show this year and it was Mrs. Railton favorite at the show.
