If you follow it you'll find that one has been secured by a different entity.

They say that getting the door to open is like finding the clitoris. How is it really?

 

I've seen it done with just two fingers ...the door, not the clitoris. :D

 

It takes a slight bit of finesse but you'll find your way through it quick. Plus, getting in is sooo worth it.

I test drove one the other day and should be receiving mine in about a week.

 

Opening the door seems pretty easy. If you can't figure it out you can always push a button on the key fob to open it.

 

I just wonder what happens when the battery dies.

There is a panel you can pop off just past the door on the underside of the side vent cut out that has a key release. I am sure they will share this process with you when you collect the car. You can see the panel in this shot, just ahead of where the carbon blade intersects with the underside of the vent outline:

Not sure if the dealers are adding any additional padding to the MSRPs, but the 12C starts at around $235,000 and most of the ones I have seen with options tacked on have been in the $250,000-$270,000 range. If you got really crazy with those check boxes on the order sheet you could exceed $300K but it wouldn't be easy.

RFC 1738 says it's fine; if you're bored, check this out, a web-designer mate sent it to me when I asked the same question!

I know its physically possible - was asking cause I understood it was best avoided - but I now understand someone took the non hyphenated url to direct traffic to another site.
