Geez car companies, show some guts. Build some of those and put them on the road. No new car today gets anyone I know excited, but some of those old photos do.
I had a Subaru SVX that looked like this one: https://bringatrailer.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/2003_su...
That car was designed by ItalDesign in Italy, a firm famous for many iconic sports and concept car designs. In the OP you see quite a few examples of their work. The inset windows are something of a signature of theirs, as it allows the upper roof area to be more sloped.
Anyhow, it was a pretty striking car to drive around. Unfortunately the US version was only ever sold with a mushy and failure prone transmission. So despite having a rather nice 230 HP flat six engine, a wide stance, and a suspension that would be quite sporting when stiffened up, it never really ate into the low end BMW or Porsche market it was targeted at.
There has to be some middle ground for safety inside and on the outside.

A lot of times false precision bugs me but here I think you are comparing fine differences and need a bit more.
Using your figures, (36/33)/(329/309), I get 2.5%, not 4%.
It definitely looks like a concept car. but you can buy it right now and at ~100k$ it's not priced like an exotic (although I wouldn't really go as far as to call it affordable).
