    give me the standard SLR, maybe with Brabus rims.
    I'm probably one of the few, especially here, that likes the standard car. and I'm aware of its defects.

    While it is kind of odd looking, I like it better than the standard one. That's not saying a ton though. I think the standard one is a little ugly.

    Don't like the black and white rims though

    Whoa... that was nice way of tuning the SLR... I really like the remodelling of the body kit specially the rear wing...

    It's pretty nice...

    It has too many colors on the body, and bare carbonfibre body panels, the wheels are too big, it has a rear wing, it has a script on the doors, has too many exhausts and the red interior is ghastly.

    That's all I can think of now.

    Yeah... I just noticed those pictures recently...

    1. But the color of the body (at the very least) can be changed, so that's not much of a problem...
    2. The Rear wing and new body kit actually attracted me...

    ...You have to note that the standard SLR is made of a lot of carbon fibre panels...

    And yes... The inteior looks ghastly, i have to agree withyou on that...

    The problem for me is not the carbonfibre itself, I acknowledge all the benefits from having it.

    The problem is showing it. It's like saying you need to compensate for something. Like the roofs on the current BMW M coupes.

    Correct me if i'm wrong... What you're trying to say is that those carbon fiber panels should be covered with paint and not be exposed like that...

    Did I get that one right???

    any body panel made of carbon fibre should be painted and never, ever, left exposed.

    Well then... The Koenigsegg CCXR has a problem... (just used this car as an example)

    That car has a carbon fibre body with no paint over it...

    zonda = sexy, no matter of the paint!

    even if since it was available a lot of them was purchased with the bare carbon fiber body, and that is kinda annoying
