If only other manufacturers would do the same. I'm looking at you BMW. :smith:

I too shared this sentiment until I was fortunate enough to attend a seminar hosted by Mr Bangle himself. He explained that basically design at BMW was stagnating, a point he proved by putting a 3 series, C Class and A4 next to each other and deleting their 'iconic' features aka, grill, headlight, etc. All the cars were identical. He had to do things the way he did. Porsche's iconic feature is its body, so they have it real easy when maintaining brand identity.

How tacky.

Agree with this. I find it surprising that Horacio designed that hideous interior when the rest of the car is a masterpiece. Just doesn't gel.

A proper car interior should look like this


The best interior for a current production car would either the Spyker which someone has already mentioned or this

Just came across this ridiculously good tumbler. I dunno how to rehost the images to give an example of the content so you'll all have to trust me and check it out http://artoftheautomobile.tumblr.com/. The gifs are quite something.

I'm interested in getting an M191. Should I go for the B or L trim level? Going to use it as a daily driver, roughly 90 to a 100 miles a week with the occasional longer trip.

What's the storage space like?

It's great, you can seat 2 people beside you and they can carry all your belongings. It's really a 3 seater spyder
