OT: Twin Supercharged 360

all I can think is

not a big fan of the styling though.

Top Speed: 213 MPH
¼ mile: 11.6 Seconds
0 - 60 mph: 3.6 Seconds
0 - 100 mph: 8.4 Seconds

Twin-Supercharged V8
Displacement: 218.8 CU / 3586 CC
Power: 606 BHP / 451.9 KW @ 8600 RPM
Torque: 454 FT LBS / 615 NM @ 6250 RPM
Redline: 8600 RPM

A mere $221,000 buys you this 2003 Novitec F360 F1 SuperSport

I like the front kit, the rear is okay... but i hate the dot matrix design on the challenge grill, as well as the clear brakelights. But I'm sure you could have them (the custom tuners) make it how you like. :wired: :yum:

Also hate the interior. :uhh: But I love the performance numbers. :wired: :boink:

A lot fo the pieces look like the Hamann ones...I have actually seen that rear dot matrix challenge grill before (trying to find it in my bookmarks!!)
FYI - Koenig makes a twin turbo kit for the 360 that bumps the HP up to 600 and 0-60 to 3.5sec!!

Boy, that's one ugly car. Looks like an old supra from the back. Not that supra looks bad with a Toyota badge, but, when you have a Ferrari that looks supraesque, I think that is a problem

I don't see the resemblence. A supra never had taillights similar in any shape or form to the 360's tailights. I would have to get pretty drunk to even remotely see what you are talking about.

I'm sorry, let me go ***** away in some of the other sections. We all know the golden rule, post count = intelligence. You are the one who said a 360 modena looks like a supra, that post count is REALLY working to your advantage.

I don't see the resemblance to a Supra either. I have owned a Supra in the past and I currently own a 360. I suppose with enough drinks you can think the VW Bug looks like the TT.

There is no way in hell that this f-car looks like a Supra. Add some Jack Daniels to the mix then maybe

Actually that rear Carbon Fiber Grill is made by Tubi.
Same with the center console. I hate the way it looks too, But Koenig's is even worse!



I do however like the idea of this!

that power is what the 360 should come with for the price. they don't have to worry about durability since most won't be driven over 10k miles during the first 5+ years, the warranty is only 2 years, and owners expect outrageous service/repair bills anyway.

fwiw, it's a 3 year warranty, but i agree ben that the car should have a bit more oomph for the money.

Taillights remind me of a Chevy Impala. Ugly!
