Coquette: Difference between revisions

The Coquette closely resembles the [[wp:Chevrolet Corvette C5|Chevrolet Corvette C5]] (1997-2004), albeit with revealed projector-style headlamps and altered fascias. The front fascia is closely reminiscent of the [[wp:Honda NSX#"Facelifted" NSX (worldwide)|face-lifted Honda/Acura NSX]] (2002-2005) which shares the headlamp cluster design (the NSX sports a clear headlamp surround; the Coquette features a black surround), the radiator inlets, and the angular hood lines. The taillamps bear some resemblance to the Corvette and also to the [[wp:Nissan GT-R|2007-present Nissan GT-R]] where the running lamps overlap the brake lamps. The reverse lamps and turn repeaters are embedded in the running and brake lamps respectively. The Coqutte  has a high-mounted third brake lamp. The dual exhaust exits also overlap to mimic the taillight design (similar to early 2003 Gemballa Porsche models which used overlapping exhaust exits). Unlike Corvette, the side vents on the Coquette do not extend the length of the door; however, are finished with two silver accent strakes. The car also features a rod antenna mounted on the roof for improved radio reception. The interior design is closely related to that of the Corvette extended leather package: the bucket sports seats feature two-tone leather upholstery with "Coquette" embroidery and matching leather door finishers; the car features a fully-carpeted parcel shelf suitable for small luggage.
