Yeah, all personal taste. I am the exact opposite, because I like the mean, menacing, no BS look.

Is that code for you can see all the gaps in the body pannels? I like black for just that reason...

You see no gap or gasket between the headlights and body, no line where wings/lips meet the body.
Different strokes for different folks.

YES, those so called gaps are seams, they excentuate the shape, they define the structure, they are part of the details, they are beautiful because they show off the function. The best designs in anything, for me, comes from the frame of reference form follows function.

That would make a fun cruiser, but I am sure it would be a pain in the ass to jump out of quickly when someone bails out on a traffic stop.

That would be so funny to see some cop falling out of the car onto the road. Which, sadly enough is not all that hard to do with one of these. I was checking an Exige out last year at the track. I asked the owner if I could get inside, he said sure, he opened the door for me and said "make it easy on yourself, do what I do, just step right onto the seat to get in." It's a good think I'm just a little guy...

Yea, but think of how easy it would be for the dog ti get in and out, the seat is only a few inches above the ground.

I prefer the idea of getting him a sidecar and taking a motor cycle. I could set him up with some goggles and a scarf too.
