Love the stripped down interior.

For a retro, I'm not a fan of the black horn grills and the rear deck looks like the rain water just pours into those velocity stacks. Did he say kevlar bumper and hood, cause I've never felt like the front needed to be lighter. But whatever, looks cool and I'm still jealous.

I had the same thought... He did say Kevlar bumper and hood. I wondered if he meant the rear "hood" decklid. But those custom pieces would be so expensive I can only admire from afar.

I also feel the same about how complicated cars and our lives in general have become. A few steps backwards to simplify is pretty refreshing.

Porsche have been fitting lighter hoods to the race and road models for years ...
