wow that almost seems like it would be undriveable with almost 1300hp, but it is still pretty cool none the less. The only real beef that I have is that the interior seems a bit low rent in the photos, but I have never seen one in person so they may not be that bad.

For 50-100k I like it. But for 470k Id pass and buy 2 TT Gallardos or 1 TT Gallardo and a Switzer GTR or Porsche or 1 Ford GT TT and 1 TT Viper etc etc etc. The combos are endless for 470k and all would be money better spent than this expensive kit car.

Look at that interior and build quality and tell me anyone would honestly consider that money well spent even if money is no object.

While I agree it is way overpriced, I would not consider it a kit car. Looks better made then my old gen 1 Viper I had. Honestly, if it performs like they say it does (which it does) who cares? Thing is a beast....

first of all, those wheels/decals look horrible on it.

ive always loved the SSC ultimate........the interior is very mediocre for the price, but then again, look inside a CLK GTR, its even worse for 3 times the price

the car is just so damn sick....it is WIIIIIDE (83") and low....very aggressive and ridiculous power on tap (2.14lbs per HP), and wind tunnel tested to 270mph.

Jay leno did a review of the car, he gave it pretty good remarks.

part 2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YAffXfF2ejU

the headlights need to be revised though, they look wrong.
