Dafuk is this?

The regular handle is still there!
That's the mechanism to open the door...how else would you open it? You need the strap to pull the door closed; there's no other way to do it

Ok this picture makes less sense to me - how do you open the door from the inside? Also, you have the option of pulling the door closed with the strap and the normal door handle? Doesn't that seem redundant?

Pulling on the strap is the mechanism that opens the door, it's not a door pull on the Porsche, the handle under the strap is used to pull the door in.

Nice car. The wheels look really tiny to me but it's an optical illusion.

As mentioned, on the porsche the pull acts as the unlocking mechanism as well as pulls the door close, both are cool, of course the porsche looks cleaner utilizing one strap for both functions but I love the gts interior
