The new car has lot's of potential...and I think it's going to do well, in terms of sales, and aftermarket. The underpinnings are there of the older ones, so they've really only got to R&D interior stuff (though this isn't needed), and exterior stuff...

They also look better in the flesh too, especially in pitchblack...
