I would hate to have to roll up the driver’s window in a hurry with that throttle right there :/
Is that carpet I see?
If it goes in sea water How long before it starts to rust and corrode?
How would the tires stand up against Corral?

It’d make more sense ( yea sense ) to have it sealed up like the 007 one so that you wouldn’t have to wear the scuba gear.
