A few places have the official photos on line - so you can now see exactly what the 2008 car looks like. Check out...

The clock on my screen had 1hr and 2mins remaining
I refreshed the page and it went back to 1hr 23mins again

Think you must be right, they read everyones posts about it and withdrew it at the last minute to redesign it, yeah right !!!! we should be so lucky

I have seen the photos dude, and i dont like it at all.

It just winds me up, They give us a flashy website with moving clock (ooooh) and say witness the rebirth here an all that, then the clock reaches zero and resets its feckin self

I know chap - we were following it here, and laughed out loud when it reset itself to a time that would mean even in NY it would be the following day. Me thinks someone got it very very wrong... pretty sad though.

I wasted 60 seconds of my life watching the final minute countdown. It then threw a bit of a wobbly and posted up 24 hours to go, which started counting down
