If Nissan had the balls to actually build these cars, or something similar to them, I'd go out and buy one! I really like the idea. I know that "retro" is soooo early 2000s by now. The PT/FJ Cruisers, new Minis, new Fiat 500s... It's getting old. But these concepts aren't working the "Oooh I'm so cute, hug me!" line. They actually are a bit ugly. Only people who know the cars they were based on can understand them, or so I think. Give it a naturally aspirated, high revving, 2.0 4 pot, and I'm game! Anyway, if they were offered for sale as is, or nearly as is, which headlights would you choose?

I'd go for the BMW-style double round ones. What's your pick?

I prefer the quad lamps on the Freeflow.

I think I like the double-rounds, but the lower part of the fascia of the tame car makes it look like it has one helluva underbite.

Can anyone photoshop the rounds headlights onto the nismo? I think that might look good

The front car's lights as the turn signals and the back car's lights for headlights.

So much want.

Headlights from the back car, but these sidepipes...

I like the round ones best.

Then again, I'm fairly sure I'm biased. I do rather like quad round headlights in general.

These. Easy.

The one with all the racing livery is trying way too hard.

And if Nissan makes the Freeflow, or whatever it's called, and makes it look as clean, distinctive, and slick as the concept, I would be very, very interested.

the circular ones, put those on the racing one and then make that into production and you have a winner.

I immediately prefer the quad round lights on the last car. However...the leading car's lights don't look like anything else or remind me of something I like that is not this car. Sometimes a bit of innovation on a nostalgic car helps the mix of old and new. Not sure if this would work well for it though.

I'd take these for sure, this entire car just looks better.
