The reworked interior gets new trim pieces finished in carbon fibre along with black leather seats. It also gets an 8 Ball-shaped gear knob. Now that’s something we’d like to see offered as standard on all modern cars! Other features include traction control, a touchscreen infotainment system with sat nav and Apple CarPlay, and a premium sound system.

The tuning company claims that the first GT500CS, showcased here, took ten months to complete. It costs the equivalent of Rs 2.3 crore before taxes. However, Sutton says that the price depends on the buyers’ specifications and that a fully built car could cost anywhere between Rs 1.7 crore to Rs 2.7 crore.
