There's only one thing wrong with that.

It's not on my driveway.

"There's only one thing wrong with that"

What, you mean OTHER than the fact that it's obviously a computer rendering based on that flaky video thing and probably not very representative of what it'll really look like? smile

Some very distinctive hints of F1 in that.

I like it, but there again, I liked the MP4-12C. I wonder if it will inject enough added drama for those who didn't?

Maybe not a render but very possibly a model, full scale or half, Look at the windows.

Not that keen tbh, I give it 7/10 plus 1 for effort. First thing I thought of after seeing it was the Autobacs Garaiya for some reason.

Looks pretty good but would like some real photos instead of the computer renderings.

After all the previews it's a bit of a damp squib reveal. Suddenly appearing in 3 photos on the website and no big reveal at a show or special event.

The frontal view does make the screen look very big/ high IMHO, perhaps as it's shaded-in black, certainly from the other pictures It doesn't appear so monstrous. Hopefully more pictures will clear it up, just 'jars' to me a bit.

Something's not right.

Car and reflection don't match, so I'd say rendered rather than real.

Still think it's great looking though.
