Looks like a former Jaguar XK I owned. Loved the wood. I think it beats the fake aluminum/plastic trim we now have.

Don't care for it. It's a 50 yr old British sports car sort of look, which looks good on those cars but I don't care for it on modern sports cars.

I really like the aluminum trim that comes stock.

That looks great! I do like the brushed aluminum better than the standard aluminum...

+1 for brushed aluminum.

Save the wood for the land yachts.

I saw a real car with wood like that in person, and it wasn't bad. With the brown interior choice shown in the OP's pic, I'm not a fan.

Wood last looked good in sports cars in the 60's...
