"That thing is a peice of ****. I met the arrogant builder of this car in FL. Don't beleive the hype, their "claimed" performance figures have not been documented (IE: it's not as fast as they say it is) It is EXTREMELY kit carish. It looked the same 4 years ago when I first saw it."

"I'm diggin' the pleather..."

"I'd go drive it if they offered but I can tell just from the pics that interior is cheesy as hell. And come on, for $550K are you really not going to tell what kind of motor is in there? I mean 387ci, it could be a stroked TT Chevy motor for all we know.
Its got a nice shape but thats it."

"Just out of curiosity, have you ever checked out the Saleen S7? Kind of yesterdays news, but N. Scotts Ford had one a month or so ago and thats a pretty kick ass car."

"That car is a hunk of shit. The builder started out building Lambo kit cars, and that is what the body is based off."



anyways, I think its a good looking car, but look how low it is to the ground. Absolutely impractical to drive, and not as safe cruising at 200mph compared to the Veyron.

Love the educated "2 bits" Rob .. thanks .. I am in the market for a retarded machine and read, down load respect your clips and posts .. you'll be one of the first I tell about what ever I get .. recently looking at the Murcielago at Vancouver Weissach http://www.weissach.com/passion-lamb...lay=murcialago
decent lease options ..and partners looking seriously at a Bentley ..already building the fastest best performing 66 Beaumont ..400K into it already .. i'll post pix when completed ..
