David is a very genuine guy, and his passion is obviously evident in his work. Hope you guys enjoyed this video -- it was one of my favorite interviews from the show.

wow!

I reckon he got it just right. From a design perspective it has great lines (yes very ferrari lambo inspired) but it's general geometry is great. US car designers often attempt to emulate latin styling and this car surpasses a great deal of what even pininfarina have done for ferrari lately. Love to see or hear how it sounds. Rear lamps are a bit dated but essentially it's a great design.

haha not really~

Designs the car and they don't even give him one. :( that's a pain. It does look like a lambo.
