Also see the article on the Gemballa Mirage GT. Something's weird with those numbers. Power is up to 645 BHP, but the weight goes w-a-y up to 3550lb, so the 1/4 mile number is slower than stock (both ET and MPH), then they claim a top speed of 250MPH. I smell some BS there. If there's more downforce (which they claim there is), then there's no way they didn't pay a drag penalty, too. WTF?

They made an error, the 250 mph top speed is claimed for the twin turbo version. The Mirage is absolutely aweful! 3550lbs!

Perhaps it's just me, but ... $30K for a 600HP engine package?? The Protomotive 650HP package costs $10K and makes more power to boot.
