Devil's advocate here, for such a high profile show car at Geneva, some of the leather on the seats is a bit more wrinkled than I would have expected.

Think back to when our cars were introduced. The interiors were incredible when contrasted with the relatively stark interiors in other models sharing the showroom. Looking at the interior pictures reminds us of how 30-40 years of "normal wear" affects the whole perception of quality. We fail to notice casual wear for the most part, because there's not a lot one can do to fix it short of replacement.

By the way, I actually talked my wife into a leather covered dash and interior restoration. She took one look at that teal car and its stitching, then fell in love with it.

Love these 2 cars, but agree on the Aero mirrors and I would have done a more modern steering wheel too - not having an airbag opens the door for much better and more modern or interesting choices to better complement the exterior enhancements.
I was going to put the TechArt Formula Wheels on my Spyder, but couldn't find them in workable widths and offsets so ended up with something similar even though I like the TechArts better.
18x8 et 57 with 235/40-18 & 18x10 et 65 with 295/35-18 and 15mm spacer (rear fenders are non-stock & wider due to the conversion).
Madturk's car used to have the TA Formulas, but I think he has changed them out to something else now - maybe due to fitment.

That's a cool view.
I also don't think that huge wing on the cab next to the 928 looks very good - ruins thec lines. With the top down, cabs need the OEM spoiler or a ducktail. The 911 coupe further away with the similar wing looks much better.
I'd love to get to one of these big shows where companies like RUF and TechArt also exhibit.
