[Figit090]

Sounds like performance to me with 700bhp....

I'd rather have an ATOM.

 

[Wills7MGTE]

I'd buy it

 

[7Mboost]

That is a Callaway Corvette mixed with a Ford Gt and its electric.

 

[Figit090]

don't forget TVR... check the tail lights

by performance i'm talking the car they compared it too... not it in itself. and i posted this in part because it was a performance car.


so yeah, my point is, i was referring to the other car

 

[Figit090]

and aston martin. shit and lotus.

its a runt.

but who cares its damn fast and i'm sure 200ft/lbs right from 0 RPM would be pretty fun!!

 

[7Mboost]

^yeah i was gonna add that but got lazy, either way looks sweet.

 

[GrimJack]

The $300,000.00 price tag will scare away most of us, I figure.

 

[Evilempire1.3JZ-GTE]

Yea the arial atom, T-rex, Tesla motors electric car. these look good also.

 

[johnathan1]

Virtual Engine sound??? :aigo:

 

[swaq]

I'll take the Tesla, thanks.

 

[LilMissMkIII]

Virtual Engine sound??? :aigo:

Yeah, i saw that too... :nono:




But, it's not a bad-looking car... The price tag is rather hefty though
