I’m sure this is one of many questions that has gone through your mind when seeing sports- and super-cars; what would they look like in stinky-cheap base trims?

In a follow up to his no-frills Skoda Fabia entry-level edition, Hungarian digital artist X-Tomi assembled 15 performance models and gave them a base-model treatment with unpainted bumpers and side skirts, and steel wheels with no hubcaps.

We can just imagine the smiles on the faces of 1980s German carmaker executives upon viewing these renders, though, in all fairness, you don’t have to travel so far back in time to find an actual equivalent; Toyota launched a stripped down version of its Japanese market 86 (Scion FR-S) coupe just two years ago.
