Interesting how he got written up for a ticket by the O.P.P.!!!
I wonder if it will affect his insurance rates back in the U.S.?

Money quote: "a sumptuously upholstered race car, a carbon-fiber lightning bolt hurled from Zuffenhausen to History itself." Great writer. Won the Pulitzer Prize this year.

Inspected a black/black one closely 2 days ago. Engine compartment layout / finish and suspension fantastic looking . Interior looked and felt pretty much like any 911 ( esp with the std issue 911 gauge cluster and steering wheel design) with upgraded leather save for the unusual arcing center console . Lot's of same painted plastic " alumi-look" like on current cars.

You're right. I cannot understand why, having invested so much effort in the car, they didn't do more with the interior.
