    The grey haired man is not completly wrong but I'm more with this guy below.



    Beside this I'm more and more thinking a black 296 would look like a beatiful women in a terriful dress because you will always hide the lines more with a dark color compared to a red or... Any suggestions on the GTS?

    Certainly faster. I think it’s a beautiful package. Timeless, really.

    With the door closed at well. No way that’s production quality.

    These days they tend to make the window´s corners as rounded as possible, for structural reasons like the passenger windows in airplanes. Check also the blackened frame of windscreens: they're making them wider and wider to hide the real thicker and rounder A pillars behind them.

    What did you think of the 296, Paul, having seen it in the flesh?

    You know, I'm not sure. I didn't really notice it at the time.

    I really liked the looks of it. It really sits slow. Also, as I think you can see from my photo, the engine sits incredibly low in the engine bay. The 120 degree angle of the cylinder banks allows the turbos to sit low on the engine. I would guess the handling characteristics of this car would be incredible. I didn't have the time to sit in the car so I really didn't see the interior.

    But I don't see a hybrid in my future.

    Edit: One other thing, I was told that car was a Euro spec.
