I think the nose will be more like the MC12 , reminiscent of the 2013-2018 GT Sport/ Stradale. The render is a copy of the 2018 onwards GT which looks like every other car with their fake aero brake intakes.

not sure I agree it’s a 2018- copy

I’ll never say never, but can’t see me buying a >£100k EV. £100k still buys a lovely collection of 4-5 special cars that make noise.

I finally managed to get my GC on a 250ml round trip down to London last weekend.

I was at at the lights at the bottom of Park Lane near Hyde Park Corner when, out of the corner of my eye I spotted a 10yr old boy bouncing up and down gesturing for me to rev it. I hit The Sport button and gave him the obligatory few blips in neutral before gunning it off the lights.

I will always remember the grin on his face as I went past…. I can pretty much guarantee it wasn’t for Tesla that was sat next to me.

To think that the aural pleasure (no double entendres please) we get from our ICE cars is not shared by the younger generation is a falicy. It is the entire experience of driving a GC (or similar exotic) that makes us all love them so much. Looks, sound, driving thrills et al.

I have had the luck to drive some truly awesome machinery in my time and there will always be some of us that will pay £10 a ltr to have those thrills again and put that grin on a kids face… even if that kid is me!

Yep, pretty much every journey I make involves youngsters pointing, shouting, Jaws dropping etc.. So they definitely still appreciate the noise and beauty.

They may change their mind when they see it doesn't have WiFi, a massive ipad on the dash, G-meters and HUD :mock8: but still, it's a good start.

Doubt it, his is sat at our workshop with it missing and the spray arm for good measure!

Well, if yours is the right colour for @CyrusJH and he has one coming soon, it wouldn’t be a terrible idea to do a deal. Ash said yours was black, so not sure.
