A couple of design comments, all my personal opinion so take with a large grain of salt. Again, stunning. Aesthetically, I'd personally like to see something more visually substantial in the roll hoop area, perhaps enclosing the hoops. Not sure if and how that would compromise aero. Second, the lines of the car are clean and flow quite nicely. Unfortunately, my eyes are being drawn to the shark fin venting on the front bonnet (?). I'd personally prefer mesh, which would be much more elegant. Something about the headlight design is bothering me a bit - maybe if both lights were "connected." As it is now, it looks like two sets of eyes, which just feels "off." And if you must do chrome, please, black chrome.

Other than that, awesome! I want one. Question - is the hydrogen conversion process real time, or does it need a reserve built up?
Just take a flat black spray can to it and all that stuff goes away
