nah, i always wanted to design my stuff, a childhood thing!!!! & make it, fit it and then also share it with other guys in different countries, a profit is a bonus.
it is also interesting how the stuff is made, very skilled labour intensive, and the difference between wet lay and preg/vac/bake made
and that only German mipa laquer is used.......
i wanted to do kevlar but that is so hard and stiff , it is very hard to do, i like the yellow and black weave pattern!!!
do you reckon carbon chairs looking like the Starck ghost would sell????? i might explore that.

wow our cars is better than AM
For the DBS may ppl say it is crap to drive fast
If I had 1 will not drive it fast at all pose and drive slow like ET
it is design just for looks just like mark say with 4 door car.
