Default Mansory Cormeum

Hope this isn't a repost.

Historically, I haven't been fond of Mansory renditions. A few have been acceptible but most are just too over-the-top. Here's their latest of the Mercedes SLS. I am not sure how I feel yet. Some of it a like. The wide body treatment is one. The aggressive front is cool but the mouth seems a little big. I love carbon fiber but there seems to be too much of it here. I think the carbon treatment would look better glossy instead of this matte finish.
Sorta looks like a Batmoble and that is a cool thing.
For the most part just wanted to hear your opinions.

Pretty cool, but I am not feeling the dry carbon. I like it with that clear coat like the Zonda F

The front end is way too busy, with too many creases and angles. And the carbon fiber is overdone.

Check out the Ferrari 599-like head lights.
The snout looks like a cross between and Enzo and SLR.

If were glossy, black or white I'd like it a whole lot more.

I dig the name though. Cormeus sounds so dramatic.

This one produces 660 hp but they are working on boosting that to 800 hp.

Vid at the Geneva Auto Show.

I like this SLS better. Wonder why none of these tuners know how to make spoilers that make the car more attractive.

Not digging the 599 Headlights. The whole car is just not my cup of tea.
