Phantom Corsair

Very heavy and no outward visibility, from what I hear. I really like the fenders on these:

Shown at Toyko by Ken Okuyama. I'm not sure about the Gulf livery with the red interior, but the fender blisters remind me of the D-type Jaguar, the windsplits on the Mercedes 300SL and the Mako Shark Corvettes. Not bad company and it still looks contemporary, especially the upside-down echoes at the rocker panel—like that 0.17Cd Matra from the same era.
