Only 1 person got the carbon engine trim? That was on the press cars and it looked insanely good!

I've driven 3 of them! Whoop Whoop! I would wait before buying one, you NEED the carbon trim in the engine bay, etc.

Do you mean the current 6-speed is bad or 'just get the 6-speed'?

The R-tronic got excellent reviews, but the 6 speed is so much fun. The car is significantly easier to drive than a Gallardo. It's the best 2 seater daily driver you can buy! (assuming you don't need much trunk space)
