oddly enough, i can explain why the windshield and rear window have blacked out edges. any piece of glass that is glued to it's mount, which these appear to be, HAS to have blacked out edges. the adhesives that are used to bond glass to metals is very UV sensitive. and the black hides the ugly glue lines anyway.

but i hear you on the chrome. black trim, or no trim, on the sides would be better.

yeah, new vehicles shouldnt have chrome unless its an ugly grandparent domestic 4 door v8 5000lb car ready to be drivin out of your local Senior Center into your car as you pass by lol.

Chrome is for classics...and oh yeah chrome is supposed to be REAL!

This car is beautiful. The Veyron looks like it was designed by 5 people who were not talking to each other. It is an "engineering masterpiece" but it is U-G-L-Y. This Alfa, on the other hand, is gorgeous. Too bad it's a $250k car.
