400K and no cupholders anywhere?  :o ::) What a scam! The sub-20K Fit has 10 of them.... Better buy a Fit and pocket the rest.

You are looking at this all wrong Carcrazy.   If you own a Roller you can stop and have your coffee brought to you by a waiter who will wait at the door to take the cup when you have finished.

Even better; you could drink your coffee sitting at a table not in your car like civilized people do. After all as a Roller driver you won't have to hurry to go to work.

The headlight treatment is weird. The rest is beautiful, and the styling hides just how big this sucker is.

What's going on with the headliner? Is it diamond encrusted or something? ???

It's a starfield made from tiny fiber-optic lights.

That strikes me as more than a bit garrish, but I'm sure a different treatment is available upon request.

Except for the suicide doors and the strange front end, it reminds me of something GM might have built in the early 70s. Except for the dash, which is more '66 Coronet.

Your own signature says "...Oh, give me land, lots of land under starry skies above, ..." and Rolls-Royce does and you're still not happy.  Pfff... crotchety old fart.

You know what the best thing about this car is? I can pull up beside it at a stop light, rev the engine and then smoke it to 100! It'll leave the rich tosser shaking his head. ;D

Ha ha! 400 large, a 400 and something HP motor and the best it can do is 5.8 seconds to 100? Rich people of the world stand up and unite! Don't buy this vehicle until they put an even bigger gas-guzzler in it!

Seriously though, it looks like it's worth the money. What an exterior/interior! Very richly appointed vehicle.

The IP looks slabbish (narw) and unfinished like something a bus manufacturer would make....slathered with some burled wood for "luxury" feel. Looks bad IMO. The exterior stying is really, really nice, however.
