Agreed, 2472 is a great looking car. It's quite distinctively different looking from an FIA Cobra or a 289 roadster; it's more like a factory hotrod, which I suppose it is.
The flares along with the FIA wheels add nicely to its appearance.
Not many 289 Cobras were painted green, and the "British green" on 2472 is its original colour. Instantly recognisable!

Cheers!
