Compliments of Henrik Fisker, actually. You are pretty much on the money about the design mix. Check this out.

ah Fisker, of course. damn I didn't know he designed the Z8! (which I love, btw)

this car is impressive, 2425 lbs!

also interesting the font in the gauges is the same as the Veyron's. and, the tach and speedo reside in the same gauge. Good use of space!

check the video in here:

Wow! That VW V6 sounds good. Yeah Fisker designed the 6 series too (if my memory serves me correctly).

I would get an Artega in a heartbeat over a Cayman or Evora for the exclusivity alone, bar it's good looks and respectable performance capabilities.

Been a fan of his work since I was a kid, fascinating to read about his technique - I never really knew how he did it.

He is GM's go-to guy for Corvette cut-a-way drawings.

Yeah, after I posted it I looked at the first picture again and was like, "that may be a repost." But yeah, P&M does an awesome job on the Corvette.
