Has anyone noticed the leather look of the plastic on the insides of the headlights? Its such a nice detail. Just thought I'd point it out lol.

Haha you love your car don't you! Impressive eye to find that! They did so many things right in this car: I haven't had a chance to get that close to check over everything, but I do love the LED lights underneath the headlamp bulbs and how well designed they look.

I do, I can't lie! The only part I hate about driving this car is the fact that I can't look at the front while driving.

No kidding! You either need a film crew following you around, or have to tailgate some guy with a big chrome bumper to catch some reflection!

Enjoy the ride!

It's all in the details! They really make a car unique and stand out, even if only us gear-heads and owners actually notice these things.

Love the interior LED lighting. The 18 way Lux seats are so comfy too.

Its not leather is plastic like what was in the 3GS on the dash same inside. Yeah I saw it when they debuted the car was pretty neat to see.

PS: I can see the two small rock chips, I think you need a clear bra.

The attention to details in the GS was what sold me to this car. The little things are what matters the most, because they add up significantly.

When I bought the GS I knew it was the "best" car to buy out of the ones I wanted but I wasn't completely sold. By the night I took it home I was in love and my love has grown ever since lol.
