Amazing car. Sounds pissed off when you start it.

Amazing car!
Nice pictures. There is a guy here who has a silver one. Agreed, very mean sounding.
Very nice pictures. Very ugly car.
I'd drive it but I wouldn't buy one. It isn't the most pretty car on the road.Quote:

Would Lovvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvve to drive it though. :)
I'd love to drive it too, but man the proboscis nose, goofy wheels, and odd ass end are a visual turnoff. The interior is fantastic and that matters more to the driver, right? ;)
Interior vaguely reminds me of an S2000.
I always think they look odd in pics. in person... So sexy!
I want the wheels.
It was weird to drive it. Even with the seat fully raised, I could barely see the hood. I blame it on my height (5'6) but I also blame it on the long hood. LOL It felt like driving a boat.
How did it drive? I know they are brutally quick.Quote:

There's a couple driving around town here. They are really not attractive in person. Considering the price of $400k, I think there are much better choices.
Funny story, we were having dinner at Macaroni Grill last year, and as we were leaving the restaurant, an SLR pulled into a space two spots from our car. The hood was so long, it must be hard to gauge where the front bumper actually is. Still had a dealer plate on it, and we watched this guy crunch the curb with it, then back it up about a foot. Got out of the car cursing while his date just laughed at him.
I had to drive it a bit reserved. a little tap on the throttle and the whole care feels like its being pushed hard and you climb speeds fast. but since I cant tell where the nose begins, I had to ease it down and keep it under 60 (this was in a 40 zone). If it wasnt so hard to judge how big the car was around you, id probably have at least driven it a bit faster. but on surface streets with other cars gawking at you and you cant really tell how far they are, it gets tricky.Quote:

It definitely has the shock factor about it, but for the price, I'd get a lamborghini Murcielago or F430 or something. Definitely not worth the 400-500K..heck you can buy an SLS AMG or an SL Black series and you get 95-98% of this car in a much more driveable package.
zonda for that price. and that's my #1 pick.
