More chrome sidemarkers like the new 7-series. :thumbsdown: I bet it has the hideous chrome strip on the trunk, like the 7-series.

Colours are certainly for discussion . I do not like in particular the mix of solid wood and metal/chrome :thumbsdown:
In general I like the car and would appreciate reviews of the people who have seen the car in flesh as usually pictures do not provide with comprehansive view of the car.
