The C-Pillar might have been inspired by the Nissan S30. The tail lights and rear bumper might have been inspired by the Roadster Shop Corvette.
The split windows on the rear hatch of the hardtop variant is a homage to the 1963 Corvette Stingray, which famously featured a 'split' in-between the windows instead of the more common bubble hatch. The light unit shape, hood shape, side vents, mirrors, exhausts, rear and front bumpers resemble those on the Chevrolet Corvette C3. The car bears a strong resemblance to that of the Chevrolet Corvette C2 (albeit with inset units instead of pop-up headlights), particularly in the side profile and rear end.
