Where did you guys get Kappa out of that article? It does say:
Torana TT36, on the other hand, shares many basic structural elements with the latest GM sports concepts and much of its chassis componentry is sourced directly from GM.
But it also says:
It could be designed and produced off a number of GM platforms, taking advantage of the virtual maths-based processes and component sharing which enabled us to build this working concept in a very short space of time.
I might be missing it, but I didn't see it anywhere that it said "this is a Kappa concept" Aside from that, the only intersesting thing about this car is the experimental engine that may or may not be produced, and if it is produced will probably never make it to America, and the glass roof that has been proven time and time again to not be practical due to the green house affect.
Glass roofs look good on show cars but almost never make it to production. If you have ever spent any time in a '56 Ford Crown Victoria with the Plexiglass roof section (I think they were called Skyliners) you'd know why it's a dumb idea. Maybe they are planning a retracting shade system, and that might help, but a glass roof is also problematical for leakage and structure reasons too.
I would like to see more pictures, because the article talked up the styling, but from the rear it was to me totally ho-hum same 'ol same 'ol. Oh well, good to see what's going on in other lands.
