Other than the extreme concentration on what they are doing, you wouldn't / shouldn't see much wind blow in THAT cockpit.... That's an aerodynamic design that's a little more advanced than the average convertible....

I don't care what they're driving.... if I see someone using an umbrella as a top in a convertible.... ..... that would be pretty ghetto-fabulous!

Pretty stupid, a manual roof? We don't all have butlers.

The front of the car looks like a yellow bass or better known as a carp. Sorry, but the front is just ulgy. Wonderful performance 0 to 60 in 2.5 seconds....wow. Good for those who can afford this beast.

That interior is freekin gorgeous! As is the car.... I believe the vert is limited to 217mph due to aerodynamic issues with the top off, still plenty fast to fetch the milk in though...

Fabulous toy for the super-rich, but "biggest engineering marvel ever made?" Nope.
