You know it is a serious car when the central display is RPM – with speed as an afterthought.
Wouldn’t win any design award. Looks like a Vacuum Cleaner – with a name to match. How come Porsche always has a beautiful design? and these “monster$” look like hospital ions that you swallow so they can zoom through your veins and arteries – cleaning the walls! Finally for that kind of money – the inside must be cramped and (eyes) view must be limited – just to watch speed (things go by) without the ability to view the scenery abound. Remember the big talk about $4,000 coffee makers, only years later to realize a simple french press – makes the best coffee (and has a beautiful design (french press cost less than $30) – many moneyed people have no sense of design or “Taste” for that matter… I’ll take a 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet (about $100,000) and let the french pressed coffee brew – await the plunge time as we take off – no windows no roof – 360 degree view and a reasonable resonance from the exhaust to exhilarate most demanding drivers. As for the “Carbanato” – whatever it costs – god bless them – probably something Mitt Romney can put on the “elevator in his house” to watch go up and down.
If you clicked on this you might know what happened to Top Gear? Is it on TV anywhere aside from repeats?
I’ll take the Ferrari, everyday and twice on Sunday, Lambo gives me nightmares…
I think the purpose of cars like that is to advertise how much money you have which that puppy will do a lot better job of than a Ferrari. It looks like it’s getting ready to transform itself into a ninja warrior. But it probably isn’t any more fun to drive than a Miata or one of the BMW Minis with the big engine – at least I hope so because I’m never going to drive a super car.
Never underestimate design influence that the F11 nighthawk stealth bomber has had.
