Beautiful, but it does need some colour accents (Red, blue, orange or gold)

Great pics. Confirms my love of dark cars.

Agreed! And also a huge shout-out to that ice grey leather interior on the above car, which I feel adds a ton of visual interest too!

What stops us taking the plastic cover off to reveal the engine?

Yeah 100% correct. I saw an i4 with and without the engine cover at Hethel early June and it's really not a pretty sight without the engine cover. It sit's quite low so you need to peer into the window to actually see it. A few people I was with commented on the same.

I believe this AMG 2.0 turbo engine requires to be “enclosed” for proper temperature management.

Yeah that and it looks pretty bad too Not knocking it, I’m getting the I4 myself, but that engine is best covered

making the vents and grilles body colour (or the body grille colour) does work really well

Is it just me or does that turbo seem massive for an engine that small? Normally the stock snails are tiny.

High tech, however nothing to showcase from a viewing perspective...Privacy glass would be mandatory to hide that ugly plastic cover.

Sure, but this one comes with an engine that's designed to be operating at 30.5psi -- stock. Typically need a decently sized compressor housing to achieve this.

Very purposeful and business-like. Made to be one of the most efficient and powerful engines ever (in relation to its compact size). It is devoid of styling for styling’s sake.

Any black Emiras delivered in UK (or anywhere) yet? I guess the first cars will be I4s so no dels yet.

 

[TomE]

None delivered yet but the i4 car on display at Goodwood Festival of Speed was Cosmos Black. My pics are in the first post above.
