I absofreakinlutely HATE center mounted gauges. My speedo and tach should be directly in front of me. They have no business off to the side. Other gauges I don't really care much about.

Its an amazing car, I am a huge fan of not only the design, fit and finish, but of others driving impressions. Wiesmann is supposed to make some seriously fun cars. I have to say I have a deep interest in car design and I think that car pulls off the package extremely well. The subtle design cues are amazing.

Cool side note. The European distributor for the company bought Smitty and myself coffee and chatted with us for a bit at the Ring.

I like it!!!

Some of the lighter colors make it look like a pimp-mobile though.

I like it - looks like a cross between a Jag X type and a BMW Z8.

Looks very un-Germanic. More like something to be fancied by the RAF bomber jacket / moustache & goggles brigade.

Bet it goes like a dog shot up the arse though....

The body looks great, the front end is very Jag C/D/XKSS - type. The rest could be just about anything from the 50s/60s.
