Great feel to these pics, and nice looking car! Did you get to drive it, and if so, how does it drive?

yes, I had the car for, hmm, I think 5 days. Well you certainly can't compare it to the other roadsters, like the TT, the 350Z, the Z4 or the SLK.

By character it's much closer to let's say classical cabriolet's like the A4 or the volvo C70 and such. Actually it's somewhere inbetween the sporty cars and the two I just mentioned.

It's heavier, it has much more body roll, it just feals heavier. This one had the 200hp diesel engine, which is an ok engine, but imo the car deserves the V6. It would give the car the ultimate sound. I don't know about the preformance, because I tested the V6 in the brerra and the car really didn't feel fast at all...

The nose naturally becomes heavy very fast, but otherwise, if you apply force gently, and if you think while going fast, which means not just throw the car into a corner, it grips well, and can corner decently fast.... but, this car's main purpose is to pose and it does this with SUCH elegance, that's it's almost silly.

anyway, the gearbox isn't bad at all, it has a sporty feel to it... oh, the seat's realy could be more comfortable, but only when we're talking about longer journeys, let's say 3 hours and more.

The car has a decent boot (it's very deep), enough space for 2 for sure, plus you can use the space behind the front seats ...

one more minus, the central console is covered with aluminium which looks very nice, BUT if you're driving in the wrong dirrection, the sun will prectically blind the driver, it's been frustrating a few times...

all in all, I love this car and imo it's worth the buy because of it's beauty alone.

here's a link to more pictures where you can see more of the car. The interior pics and the ones where the car is moving are mine, others aren't.
