I can't wait to see some up close engine shots, or better yet a factory repair manual! :)

I know man. People are saying turbo upgrades will be expensive...but if you can afford this car, the upgrades should not be an issue. Plus at MOST its just two tiny 3-runner log manifolds + turbos.

I LOVE how its a single exhaust system most of the way down once the downpipes converge. Ltke i said in another forum, i can see this monster making CRAZY power with de-cated downpipes and a big single exhaust.

It will hurt however to throw away a perfectly good titanium exhaust LOL

God that car would look so nice in black... I was browsing the pics and somehow my hand found its way down my pants ;) ... I think this subconcious reaction means I must get one.

On a more serious note, I'm having trouble envisioning how those door handles would work... Keyless entry with remote sensor pop-ups?

With the handles you would actually push in one side of the handle and the other side would pop out.

You would then grab the side that popped out in order to open the door.

I have to agree on the function > trick. I see the target demographic for this car as being 30-40 year olds. While most of these people are not likely to have advanced arthiritis, I believe they are likely of the same mindset. I wonder about stressing form over function when it comes to something as rudimentary as a door handle. But then again, this is all armchair speculation. Only way to be sure is when we get to try it out for ourselves...
