The interior is utterly forgettable too. A lot of plastic around the steering column. The indicator stalks look like they belong in a mondeo. And no sculpted centre console... Step into a cerbera or tuscan and the interior still feels less dated than that of this new car.
Can't wait for someone to bring out a "tuscan" front light conversion. Should really sort the front end out imo

Electric steering? a Sport button?
FFS
Like everything else about it though.
Congratulations in your success at getting the first comment in AND fitting almost all PH stereotypes into one sentence. Assuming you haven't actually driven a car from the last couple of years with EPAS? I'd challenge you to actually notice the difference in a blind test....FFS

Ah...not as nice as I had hoped. That's a shame.
I was just sitting here chastising myself for feeling exactly the same way as you. This shot in particularly unflattering IMHO...
Hopefully the looks will gel as more images come out and there's an opportunity to see it in the flesh too.
Despite the above, it's still fantastic to see a new TVR model!
But if I told you that photo was from Veilside's new catalogue....
I do like it but I have to be honest, I'm a little underwhelmed by the looks so far. I know concept drawings always exaggerate lines and features but the aggressively styled car we've seen thus far did look very possible..
I still think it looks nice for sure, and will improve in better lighting with nicer wheels, but it does feels 'tamed' somewhat.
But then, it has taken the Griffith name, and I don't think the Griffith was necessarily the most aggressively or futuristic-styled TVR, so perhaps if the brand continues to grow we could see some more adventurous styling in future models.
Of course it call comes down to how it drives, I can't wait to see it on the road being put through it's paces - Chris Harris please thrash this around the Evo Triangle and/or Anglesey!
