WOW thanks for the link, this is awesome!!!!! great to see the interior, it looks pretty nice, a lot of cf. the location of nav looks a bit funny, maybe just the angle. i love the cluster, looks so cool the way it does all the display!!!
exterior is pretty much the same as what most of the spy pics have shown, very nice. hearing the soundtrack that's some very fast and aggressive shifting
i see complete carbon brakes up front too, another awesome thing!

looks like matte black will be a factory color.
the front end does look like a jackolantern though.
why is there a key AND a push button start on the wheel?

Every thread, something looks like something 
I saw it, I felt it just had an angry, aggressive face. I don't see anything else in it.
No one knows yet, it will be officially unveiled in a few hours.

Maybe it's like the Veyron where you can stick a high speed key in where it unlocks all the potential?
... I have no idea.

Perhaps the ignition is set-up race car style? First you turn the key, then you press the engine start (or vice versa). Many race cars have such a setup.

You can't see it from that angle, but doors handles are recessed, in front of those side intakes.

Love the sound it makes from that V10, that interior looks nice, I prefer the front looks of LF A roadster more

Remote Touch, as expected!  My guess is this is the racing-spec LFA; I do like the LF-A Roadster front better though. Anyhow, the interior is very technical and interesting, and that steering wheel makes me think it is the racing-spec model (reports are that a 'regular' and track-ready version will be sold).

hot damn i love it!
though, I'd love it more if it was the 08 LFA II version. The nose and that titanium silver color was just perfect, it should be unveiled just like that.

The exterior well we've already seen. The interior is great though, only complaint is I don't like the steering wheel.
One thing must be said though.... That is a LOT of Carbon Fiber going around.
