I don't like 4 doors, period! Even if they look good, it's an image thing. Unless it's a RR, and I could never see myself buying one of those, 2 door only is the starting point - period. And if it's a coupe, unless it's that Mercedes thing, also S Class only, you may as well make it a difficult to engineer Convertible. That's what a bumper car is, a 2 seater, if that, open top, but the I just know that the proportions of the Z8 are classic from all I've read. I read smthg @ the Golden Mean principle used in the design of this car. The way it looks combined w/ the way it is built is almost like custom ordered. Hard to shoot down this car because it may happen to share a few elements w/ a bumper car! I'll take it, if only I could.
