thats a bit better than the youtube angle, shame no interior pics but it looks awesome... should have placed a deposit! 
I'm clearly in the minortity with this view, but I'd have thought it would be a bit more exciting to look at. Seems a bit retro, a bit "what a future sports car will look like" drawn ten years ago,
They've clearly gone for the middle ground and not wanting to offend or deter anyone with the styling.
Listened to that vid that's doing the rounds of the engine in a Cerbera test mule. Certainly sounds good.

I approve, I give my go ahead to start making them 
Very much a TVR, possibly a little too much going on styling wise, but I think the wheels, though a pleasant enough design in isolation need to be simpler with all that going on, proportions are bang on.
I am getting notes of Dodge Viper with the front wings. as mentioned more than a smidge of Merc round the front (maybe some Mk2 Clio as well ?), rear side windows is AM Vantage (90s variety) and a lot of TVR's gone by, the rear seems very original to my eye.
Awesome to see it come to fruition and I hope it does well, now need to see and hear one in the flesh, and in a few other colours, with different wheel designs.

..and unless I'm mistaken, Audi steering wheel.That's not the bad bit though, it's that black plastic vent in a different finish sitting incongruously to the side just under the "watch this" button set. Making my eye bleed. You might overlook it on a cheaper car, but these things are 90 grand!

Fortunately for TVR I'm not their target market and I hope they're successful regardless.
