Also note the driving lights in the front valance are not the same as the first red car. whats the problem? No two cars that rolled out of the Baldwin lot were identical. Nothing has changed, same as it ever was. Gas it.

I know that back in the day the performance mods weren't identical from car to car, but fenders are another story.

If that's the case then I don't know much about the old Motion....

Mirrors, badges, wheels, windows, gas fillers etc. grab whats handy or whatever the customer wanted.
Aren't the fenders hand made? You either like the cars or you dont. I'll let the buyers be the critics.
I really don't see any relevant significant differences, maybe its this new fangled computer monitor.
I'm still used to looking at fast cars in my rear view mirror.

It's being critiqued because it missed on fit…not because its unaffordable. I’d do the same thing to a custom built house.

No one will have one if they keep making it like this. That's all I'm trying to say.

yeah, maybe it looks crappy in person. All I have is this TV screen to go by, it's so shiney and looks real fast. Anyone hear it run?

Shiny with 1/2" gaps between some of the doors and front panels...I know the horse is dead on this one, but for $500K!...Is the fit of a toyota too much to ask?

Look at the pedal placement directly under the front of the dash??? I do not know how anyone could drive the car comfortably-your legs will be in your chest...... For a half million dollars and a claim that they test fit the cars to each owner... There is no way that happened here. I have not seen the car in person, is it as bad as I have been told? The pictures really do not look that good...

Didn't I read that the motor is set back? And look how far back the seats are in relation to the door opening...
