    The pillarless two door coupe is the best looking design ever. You'll have the Jaguar XJ-C from 1975 as one of the first attempts. The design was awesome, functions like drainage, not so much.

    Actually, you can't limit the speed. This function alerts you that you are exceeding a certain speed. If you enter 120 km/h and drive over 120, the car will alert you.

    Nice video man!
    But with no disrespect but there are a couple things wrong. Front Grill emblem isn’t even original. Rear trunk and front emblems are fake as well. They never made emblems like that. Rear trunk logo emblem looks original but second generation font. So besides the mirror and wheels it’s not really labeled an AC Schnitzer car.
