It's just to meet the homologation rules. That's why you need a screwdriver to open it instead of a latch. They added this to check a box, not make something actually useful
Its cus its a homologation special, as in they designed the car specifically for racing, but to race they needed to create a couple of street-going versions just to meet regulations. so thats why the trunk is an afterthought, just to comply with some european street-going rules probably.
@AurelSer I know they're way over engineered, unnecessarily compilicated, pretty unreliable, and stupidly expensive to fix when the typical German faults arise. While we're making assumptions, I guess you prefer to date men? Now, F off.
bro if youre going to use it as a car and not a statue, even if not necessarily for dailies but maybe some leisure driving here and there, youre worrying too much about it considering you already spent 10M for such a rare car. the microscopic debris you accumulate underneath the car from driving in tarmac probably scratch the skirt paint more than this screwdriver.
This car has always been a top five coolest car that you’ll never see or have, to me… and every time I learn something new about it that feeling only grows stronger lol
They should have just put hood clamps there that lock down like on a race car rather than eventually scratching the paint or worse striping the area from which it was unscrewed
Thry aren't bolts. They're "Dzus fasteners," aka Quick-action panel fasteners or Turnlock fasteners. They're special, turn to release, flush mount fasteners that positively and seamlessly afix panels and hoods to aircraft and other high performance vehicles... Not "bolts." So, they don't accidentally come loose under stress, as can happen with regular latches so... Dont "talk down" about something you "don't get." If im driving a race car, I don't want to worry about a panel flying off if I hit a bump or off-camber obstacle that puts torque on the panel and forces it to pop off. So, "not a bolt" and *definitely not primitive.* 😊
Well it all started when I was just a little lad growing up in a small suburb in the outskirts of London. My dad worked in the mines and was given high end luxury sports cars by the mining company to get him to work. Every week was something new. The rest is history. P.s Shmee is actually the sound i made as a small boy when my dad hit the acceleration pedal.
I think i finally understood it Gt4= fairly decent everyday sportscar Gt3= its a good track and everyday car Gt2= damn it does great on track and probably wont be a good everyday car Gt1= track time go brrrrr
