Very nice video, they really are pushing the colour palette for interior and exterior yes

I like the 'bubble wrap' stitching and the square Austin Allegro wheel! smile

I wonder if you could order one bare, ie not painted
An "All Carbon Edition"
Lighter as well
No paint chips as a bonus

they have one i n naked CF at gaydon and are looking into it

problems are firstly the carbon needs to be done to a v high quality to look good naked and secondly the one at gaydon looks rorng as the bumpers are black plastic when not painted and stand out like a sore thumb against the CF body

In fairness, it's probably because carbon fibre doesn't have the properties required for a bumper. I don't think it would be great at absorbing low speed impacts. Plus imagine the cost of replacing one?! yikes

FYI but the front bumper on my M3 CSL is carbon fibre.

Replacement cost: £3k+ yikes

I like the video, and love the deep red external colour, suits the car well.

Not so keen on some of the two-tone interior colours, or the maestro wheel, but each to thier own.
