Just seeing those reduced height aero screens, I can imaging some bright spark motorising them so they go up and down on a switch.
One up , One down ?
Challenge on !

I'm noticing the different position of the front turn signals (lights? sorry not sure how to call them). Is that a AUS-specific thing or another "silent" evolution to avoid the melting problem?
EDIT - Also I just noticed, the exhausts are wrapped. Is that also AUS-only or can you order a car like that now?

Not sure about the headers being wrapped but he lights are a requirement of the Australian Design Rules (ADR)...as are the higher roll hoops, rear high level brake light and various other features (including the wind deflector - note not a windscreen  ).

I like the position of the signal lights. The higher hoops with the headrest filling is a meh moment. The wrapped pipes are a good idea. Is there an after market kit out there for that? I have given up on trying to keep them from bluing and stuff since it was a waste of time. Would rather drive the thing than doing the constant fiddling...
What's your mileage? Who cares. Is it practical? See #1. What happens when it rains? You get wet.

I could never understand why the roll hoops were so low in the first place, they would be pretty useless in the event of an upturn, these Aussie ones look as if they would at least work. I suspect that wrapping the headers is also to satisfy H&S for Oz. Whilst the pipes look good, frankly, I dread to think what would happen if someone were to touch them just after the car had been parked, in spite of the lable. It's common sense really. Those indicator lights look just awful stuck on the side of the headlights, like an afterthought, but I sure the Oz agents tried very hard to think of something different. I wonder if stuff can be changed once the car is registered?
