I like the proportions and styling - wonder how much will make it to production?

From that video, the doors loose a huge amount of width to the swoopy bits. Unless this thing is as wide as yo mamma, the cabin is going to be cosy.

From where I'm standing cabin size will be similar to the current Vantage but with less shoulder room.

It's somewhat unknown with the VVC as the show car had no interior, but if it's of similar architecture to the Valkyrie and AM-RB 003, the tub is quite roomy (so much so that a 6ft+ driver would have no trouble). Whether or not the steering and pedal box move to the driver instead of having an adjustable bucket seat, is unknown.

One of the cleverest parts of the design language at the moment is how roomy the cabin is despite the physical footprint looking minimal. Of course the trade off is that there's a tall, wide sill to clamber over to get in, which personally I wouldn't mind - it adds to the sense of occasion, but it's somewhat of a departure from what we're used to with swan doors and easy ingress and egress.

Very rare to see a modern car of this niche that hasn't been overstyled or ruined with silly headlights/addendum. That shape will look good in any colour.

Fair play, Aston Martin clap

Hope the eventual model stays true to this concept, in the meanwile I'm really enjoying the Carfection video on it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fkf4Rt6Sgyc
Yes Mr JWW, like all YouTubers, is an acquired taste but he does some good stuff IMO. Had the Carfection video been released first, I would've posted that. Henry Catchpole just gets it right.
Cheers to that. beer
