    Is it just the camo or does it look a bit longer, especially the front?

    I think it's the effect of the camo against the non-camo glass.

    However, do you see the seam behind the door? Third swinging door (ala Clubman/Saturn Ion)?

    Or is that seam there just a black tape line to throw off the visual?

    Looking at it closer, you may be right. Might just be an optical decoy...

    That's one ugly mule. I'm sure the final product will be better. :fingerscrossed:

    If it will be the same size as the R56, the additional doors will only allow you to "put stuff" on the rear seat more easily, but not people. :D

    Yes, very little people. Babs fits fine, Chuck does not.

    I can only get one tiny person in the back of my R56, but then I'm six foot three, and am using one back seat for myself ;)

    Definitely not liking what appears to be the turn signals positioned above the headlights.

    It looks different but that might be the camo. I might be holding on to my R56 longer....
