Once again it's a matter of personal preference. This to me is ugly . Not something I would consider regardless of the performance of the car.

Ok, somebody's got to ask, that thing between your legs on the seat, is that a new occupant restraint system? It pops a rod up during impact, to stop the occupant from moving forward? Oh man, that's gotta hurt!
Or was this car designed for females only, and that's part of the entertainment system?

Not a hard choice, get the black. I ALMOST got the tan, but the black is SO much better in person.

AS much as I like bespoke and even a bit over the top, that one just went over and fell on its face, just too busy. Look at it when you are driving:

I also think the Pagani's interior isn't very appealing and very busy, and I don't like the Bentley's interior with the red carbon fiber either. Besides the red carbon fiber, most of the controls are tiny and jammed behind the shifter, a sign of poor design. And the row of small buttons on the console is also a no-go for me.
It just goes to show you that there's no accounting for personal taste.

Perhaps sparse and button-less is more your thing...

Wow , that's pretty ugly to my style. The screen box is way out of place in the design. I'll pass.

Aw that's unfortunate. Didn't realize the Pagani lights up like a pinball machine like that. The multicolor lights completely ruin the retro steampunk look. Otherwise though the materials and finish all look so luxe and are reminiscent of an ultra high-end mechanical watch.

That Tesla interior, on the other hand, is like the automotive equivalent of an Apple watch.

The Tesla interior is just awful. It looks like the Flintsones' car with an iPad stuck on. The iPace on the other hand has a gorgeous interior. Jag have just released marketing material on it, just beautiful inside. Unfortunately not something I would jump at immediately as I cant get past the absence of a good engine note, but I could see it in my future for sure.

I assume that was a typo because the Vantage is a two seater. That looks more like a Vanquish S Volante, with California Poppy leather.

I am sooo not a fan of that color. Did not buy a dark green STS Cadillac in the early 90s because it had an interior that shade.

HA! So I was on "Autopilot" when I typed it. I even posted the Vanquish right before I typed "Vantage".

I'm sure Pagani would make it your way if you asked.

Way over-priced, and inferior to every other interior?????

Surely this isn't a standard interior ?
