So much to like
Especially the compact size (185cm 72.8in wide) I have no interest in sports cars the size of a range rover, kills the fun in my honest opinion. They also deserve praise for the focus on lowering maintenance costs (no belts for example). The rest is just cherries on top (under 1 ton, v12, stick).

A truly impressive piece of machinery 🙌🏻👌🏻👍🏻
As for design, I find the front to be old school and the back interesting 😂 Eye of the beholder 😉
