The craftsmanship is simply amazing. Even if someone does not like the appearance, to not see the level of detail that went into this car, would suggest the person is either blind or completely lack of appreciation for craftsmanship.

It is far from being my favorite though..... I never have liked the mid engine, gullwing door, bubble car look.

Agreed. Cars like this (and the Koenigsegg) are very capable and well built but looks wise...not for everyone. There are more beautiful cars out there imo.

I don't deny the craftsmanship. It is a visually striking car, no doubt, and I'm sure it is finely crafted. It just looks like the highly skilled craftsmen got a bit carried away.

I agree with you Peter. Sometimes too much is simply that, too much. If I had a couple hundred thousand to blow on a car, I'd be looking at one of the Aston Martin's. They have the body lines that is appealing to me.

I postulate an Alpha Romeo 8C would tickle your guys fance?

Yeah, Cam; the 8C was what I call gorgeous.
