    Of which interior do you personally find best? IMO...i would go for the TVR because it is very "alien-ish". But i also love the enzo's....each in its own class....

    I've driven the Enzo and I must admit I was disappointed with the dashboard. Ferrari could have done a better job.

    Diablo 6.0 and Carrera GT got awsome interiors the veyron is great to. The Enzo is special in its own way. The Carrera GT shift knob is there because its easier for the driver to reach right of the steering wheel takes less time to get your hand from wheel to shifter.

    Actually that pic. of the Carrera GT must have been the proto. The production cars got wood shift knobs, which really looks out of place.

    Are you talking about the hideous wooden shift knob? It's out of place with the rest of the interior. It should be chrome or something else, anything but a tan faux look wood. BTW, I really like Porsches -- I own them -- and I like this car, I wish I could afford it right now, but the shift knob has to go!

    i understand you could customize the carrera gt, one of the things you could change is the shift knob, the other option is carbon fiber.

    The wooden shift knob in the Porsche Carrera GT is a tribute to the old 1970 Le Man 917 car, which also had a wooden shift knob.

    That is the prototype dash. The LCD instruments did not make it into the production car either, unfortunately.

    The Ferrari 612 Scaglietti has the best interior out there, IMO.

    The TVR interiors look fantastic. You can specify ANY colour scheme you want so lots of bredth for originality. The problem with them is that they are stuck together so often prone to coming undone causing rattles etc. The leather they use isn't of the top quality either... but then its an absolute bargain at around £40k for the Tuscan/Cerbera/T350 etc so you can't expect the best hide.

    Personally i love the Zondas interior... fantastically well put together, with lots of little touches of class that set it above the rest.

    The Veyron's diamond encrusted speedo dial is rather funky though.

    The CarreraGTs interior looks fab as well. The photo above is of the prototype, the production model has a wooden gearshift and is situated a bit further back than the prototype. As mentioned it is a tribute to previous Porsche race cars and suits the car very well. The steering wheel and gearshift should be very special as they're the bits you hold, and a wooden gearnob is fantastic i think... its made from ultra high quality wood also :)

    The Lambo 6.0 interior looks the "richest" to me

    I'm not a fan of the Lamborghini interiors personally. They are bland and lack the flashiness of Lamborghini exterior styling. To me, they are boring, and have no way near the beauty of a Ferrari 360 or 550 interior. To me the best is the Pagani Zonda. A true supercar interior to match its wild exterior.

    Check out this Pagani roadster interior.

    well, the lambo 6.0 "does" look rich because of the colors used. the light off white with the blue clashes together....thats why the interior seems to be more "attractive" than a normal black on black. It also looks "clean...not cluttered. IMO.

    The blue/red is not so beautiful, but quite unique!! I still havent made up my mind whether I like it or not.
    The Tan/burgandy is nice and unique as well. This car was Ken Griffey Jr.'s.

    I have: it's uniquely awful. Yet more proof that money doesn't buy taste.
