However a possible positive note is that there appears to be a red one ( although could be a Photoshop)

I too think it is too long for the best visual impression. But driving and inside must be great.
But still there was allways those that made a Land rover on a Range Rover chassi to get the right wheelbase of 100 inches right? And similar for the Wrangler that now there is a short and long but in the US they have to make the correct length themselves :dry:
As my LWB gen 2 Jimny, the overhang at the rear is too much and should be bobbed like some folks do to the RR classic.
I think if they could meet in the middle it would be better all in all.
But there is no pleasing for some of us. Not ever

This is the picture I particularly dont like. From an angled picture the "forshortening" makes it look not too bad but this picture shows the slab side look that does not appeal to me

Nothing that a set of huge tires wouldn't fix
Of course it would need to be your "sizzling red" (Suzuki's name - not mine)
