Morgan EvaGT Press Pack (photos)
Here is the press pack from Pebble Beach, which shows the development of the EvaGT from sketches to initial CAD drawings up to the latest ones prior to model build.
I have put them in order (excluding the first photo, which was for 'Latest Photos' purposes).

Several observations: The rear end looks remarkably like a Chevy. Will the tow ball be concealed behind the number plate as in Ford Zephyrs of the 60's? Will the final production model have roof bars similar to the Land rover Discovery but with concealed cross bar attachments. Morgan are to be allowed to PRINT the cars registration above the grill, on the bonnet. Is this legal in the UK and USA ? Finally will this be the first Morgan model to be equipped with hydraulic jacks for wheel removal as do Aston Martins of the latest ilk? 
If you are doing nothing, how do you know when you are finished?

Here is the rear seat entrance method: Slide the front seat forward and fold it. If you cannot get into the rear seat then, you don't fit there anyway. Hopefully the front seats automatically slide forward when folded. On the traditional four-seater the entrance is a bit cumbersome: - slide front seat forward
- fold front seat
- enter rear passanger
- slide front seat backwards
- raise front seat back
- enter front seat
- adjust front seat
- repeat on the other side

Did someone say that this was a 4 seater? I cant wait to see how one gets into the back seats. Any takers for the first attempts I think we're all getting a bit carried away with the EvaGT being a 4-seater Frank. It is really a 2+2, which to my mind is a completely different animal.  On several occasions MMC personnel have said that it will have similar room in the back to a Maserati Granturismo, and if this proves correct and having owned one of these beasts, I can confirm that they are more than capable of carrying four normal-sized adults in comfort. As for getting in and out, well I agree that is a completely different issue.  B
