He's just as bad in person. And there are plenty of people, both bike and car, that are faster then him through the canyons.

Can't deny that It's still a cool car and respect to him for making his dream car.

I must have missed the extreme douchiness somewhere. No matter to me. He despises Allan. He's aces in my book

I love the car no doubt, but it doesnt look that fast to me. 700+hp in a 1000kilo car should move like absolutely nothing else. this just doesnt look like a 700+hp machine, atleast not in this vid.

It was probably running on low boost and Matt Farah isn't the owner of the car, so on a public road he's not going to be going 10/10ths. I thought it looked crazy fast, but then again, not 700hp in a shoe fast!

I don't really want to post a link to this story, but check Jalopnik today. Pity, cause it really was a gorgeous car.......
