Nice work.
wonder what a ragtop or full power retractable hardtop version would look like? Maybe make it more aerodynamic … know the body panels won’t be flat but a longer hood and some swooping curves might be interesting.

Inspired by sports cars of the past, I decided to create a concept of a Slate Coupe. Inline with the companies ethos, it seemed only natural to come with a Targa top :)

What do we think?

That is one ugly concept! But I love it!!!

Oooh, I dig this idea.
a little more flat on the sides, sharper back and same fronk hood and I think it would be perfect for the warp thing they have. It would be small convenient and if they could use a lot of the same parts as the truck it would have cheaper replacements. I think this would be even better for the new driving teens since it also has that style. I know when I went to high school a lot of kids had hatch backs plus if they matched the foot print man thing would cost 12,000 easy money

European Suzuki Vitaras and Japanese Escudos offered a 'sport' roof, I dig the idea.

and this one is the other
I like that one a LOT better. AI is going to ruin everything. Boomer logic, sorry.

I really want a truck, but if they made that, I would buy it!

I think a 1990 VW Scirocco has the right style lines for a Slate coupe.

I have to agree. I had an '81 Scirocco, the prior generation. A coupe utility hatch sounds great to me. You could even s-can the back seat like the CRX I had after the VW.
