Just watching a music video (Go with the flow, QOTSA), and there was an open-gate gearbox in it...which made me think "I absolutely HAVE to own a car with an open-gate gearbox one day! Such a cool and evocative detail."

So...what else is there out there that you really, REALLY want one of your cars to have - some small detail that sets the car apart?

Quad exhausts? Flat-bottomed steering wheel? Piped leather?



The other one for me (OK, I was an 80s kid, no apologies), which I've now done, is pop-up headlights. I don't think I'll ever tire of watching them rise at the flick of a switch*...

I'd love a pair of carbon fiber backed seat with 5 point harness, alike on a F430 Scuderia. But what I REALLY want is a really loud supercharger whine. Something like on the Vauxhaull VXR8 Barthurst S.
