I have a feeling that "wow" just doesn't cover it.

The rims look familiar, Mercedes SLR??

The rear reminds me a little of the Crossfire.

The one thing I don't like is the fuel filler door. If I paid as much as that car would cost.....I don't want a fuel door that resembles an import tuner, Bullitt, or Hummer H2 fuel door.

I'm in awe of the thing...it's a beast. I agree about the fuel filler door, it just doesn't work. Neither do the V12 badges...they stick out too much. I also think the wheels don't really fit the car.

funny, the picture is too big to fit on the screen with the member info to the left, so I could only see the front half. I quickly scrolled to the right thinking that this would be one seriously beautiful car, based on how much I liked the front. Then I got to the back end and said, "...oh". Does not seem to fit the elegance of the front. And yeah, a 700 hp car has no need for the silly badges we must use to prove our cojones are bigger than the next guy's. This car has elephantitis!

I agree about the back of the car. I think with some design work on the taillights it could be cleaned up. Otherwise I think it's gorgeous.

Hard to work on? Anyone who can buy a car like this doesn't have to worry about that, believe me. Their major concern is writer's cramp from using their checkbook.
