The exterior of the car is beautiful, but I searched for more pics, and found interior pictures. WAY overboard, in my opinion. I realize they have to get a lot of controls in a small space, but it could have been done with a lot less splash and sparkle. A sleek car deserves a sleek, understated interior.

I happen to like the over the top interiors found in some supercars. Why look boring like everything else on the road when you can have this

They remind me of DUMBO......maybe thats the plate you should get if you are able to buy one.......but unless they get their act together, and get the air bag situation redone.....they won't be able to sell it in the U.S.

They were talking about selling 5 in the US, and 10 next year after they double the size of the factory. Glad to see the feds out there protecting the motoring public from these Deathmobiles.

There is a happy medium to be found. And honestly, I'd rather look at something simple & clean than completely overdone, especially if its a car I would have to live with every day. I guess that doesn't apply to supercars like the Huayra (the living with them part), but it certainly applies to Camaros.

As for the mirrors, they are mounted forward, on the fender and therefore need to stick out farther than on a normal car so that they're still along the same line of sight. The still look wierd, but thats my guess as to why they are the way they are.
