The original Avanti’s profile had a decidedly NASCAR-ish rake to it. Odd then that when the Avanti was revived as the Avanati II, the first change made was to jack up the front end, as well as ruin the beautiful faired-in round headlights.

Why that would be called “improvement in the lines and streamlining of the new Avanti” is beyond me. The original Avanti’s stance was defined as “an aerodynamic wedge, designed to to defy the wind”.
