It's great to see a British design studio arise. But, I hope that this doesn't put more pressure on the legendary and apparently fading Italian design firms.

So some guy who designed a Fiat & Mini is going to be designing the most exotic sports car to replace the insanely beautiful McLaren F1? Am I seriously the only one who thinks this is a disaster? Oh well, im sure they know what their doing, and he'll probably do a good job, im just a college student on a laptop, what do i know
