    I like it.

    wheels don't fit the styling-or at least not that color scheme.

    I think the wheels are supposed to match the grill, window liner, door handles, etc...

    However, if I was a buyer, I wouldn't get those wheels either. I like traditional alloy "silver" colours that aren't highly polished. It's just too bright otherwise.

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    this drawing the roof line, especially back of the B pillar, is almost directly copied from the Cadillac Sixteen concept ....not a bad thing, but not original

    IMO is looks great, it's exactly what it's supposed to be, a RR coupe fastback!
    I do think the lower body is lacking, it has more visual heft than it should ....it is sorely missing the RR lower bodyline (seen on the 'vert)

    As I age, a car like this makes more and more sense. One can only go so fast on the road, and the rest of the time you might as well be comfortable, this car is probably fast enough for any street situation, and undoubtably a pleasant place to spend time in.

    Problem is the car is so conspicuous to everyone looking at it, where can you really drive it. At least with an Fcar people may appreciate the machine, here you will just engender envy.

    Very cool car though. I am sure in HK Shanghai, Genva London, parts of FL and cali its useable.

    Looks good. I'd prefer some different wheels.

    It looks like a massive car, yet the rear leg room looks nonexistent.

    That seems to be a common theme with a variety of manufacturers. It's frustrating and weird. Huge car on the outside and cramped inside.

    They've been doing this for a few years now, and I still can't figure out why.

    Seems more like a little girls bedroom ceiling than a really nice car.

    It's supply and demand. It's been a very popular additional extra to the Phantom Coupe.

    There's simply a need, so its produced.

    PS, check out my World Exclusive Wraith prototype thread!

    Hmmm there's something to that look. It'd need a bit of a modern uplift to the style but I can see that working.

    Yea, hopefully that's an option and not a standard feature you have to accept. Apart from that, the interior looks amazing. :D

    Agreed. :)

    All the best,
