To me, this is even sillier than CBB vs. RBB. At least in that case
there's a real measurable difference -- hp, handling, weight (which are
the essence of a sports car, yes?).
But in this case it just boils down to: Hey, your car is ugly.
I like the "Pillow" dash. It frames the instrument panel very nicely.
What I would like to do, ideally, is have a leather dash cover made up
in the original shape -- reinforce the degree to which I think the
shape of the dash is similar to some very high-end cars.
Besides, the leather would feel nicer than the plastic. (Mind you,
steel with crackle paint doesn't feel too good, either.)
