Interesting points Steven and some great ideas.
PDK would be cool, but I think the weight penalty is going to be too great given the strict weight target. (I still don't see how they are going to a make a bigger car weigh less than an Aeromax)
Adjustable shocks - sounds good. Magnetic dampers? Like the magic Audi a8 ones might be ideal?
Simple dashboard - something like the Rolls Royce approach?
Rather too much wood there I think, but the general simplicity of everything is very nice.
Also like the turned metal from the series 1 Aero - but perhaps another fine example is the Bentley Arnage T.
Also I'd want to see quality switches all the way through. Metal flip switches, not plastic buttons. Knurled ally dials, and chrome plated (if not actually metal) air grilles.
Good seats are a must, and the must fold and slide to provide good access to the rear. A good example for this is the Maserati Coupes - 3200/4200/Gransport GranTurismo, that provide adequate access space for adults..
I'd also want proper aerodynamics - a diffuser that really works and provides downforce - as well as resolving the rear of the car well.
I'd like to see sidepipes as well - or at least flush mounted rear pipes..
