This Lamborghini Sesto Elemento seems to have the same difficult transaxle/rear bumper cover/exhaust challenges that our 818s have. I really like the top exiting exhaust tips in carbon fiber.....I think they would look just as good in some welded sheet.

I like how they made the transaxle cover a feature versus trying to wrap bodywork around it.

I bought a muffler with a carbon fiber tip. It lasted about 500 miles before it melted off. The tip is just too close to the turbo for anything but metal.
I also like the transaxle cover. I decorated mine, and light the area up with LEDs. Its a unique feature that should be shown not hidden.

Porsche and Ferrari are interesting to... Having the exhaust coming from the humps like the Porsche would look cool, but the way the air moves over the rear of the car I'm afraid would fill the cockpit with exhaust fumes :p.

I love what Porsche did with the 918. No way to do something similar with the 818C though. Possibly with the 818S but the angle on the 918 is more aggressive, making it look much more natural and workable.

Like flynntuna, I wonder if fumes would come into the cockpit of the 918 - especially for the guy who bought the white 918 at the Barrett-Jackson auction last week for 1.76 million!
