Especially at 3,000 lbs. What does the Italia weigh? Isn't it like 3100?

i think that the wheels kill a lot of the agressiveness of the car, but once fitted with good ones it will looks astonishing, they will sell a lots of this car.

the twinturbo 3.8l seems a marvellous piece of enginnering, and turbo engines are a lot better when comes time of tuning ...

I see cues from Lamborghini, Ferrari, Porsche, Aston Martin, Audi, and last but not least, Hyundai. That's pathetic.
I see a baby McLaren F1.

I like it more in the evo pictures and it's a lot better looking than the first initial renderings. I like what I hear about the performance, the carbon fibre monocoque and the 7-speed double clutch. I think it will be a serious competitor for Ferrari and Lambo on the track, when it comes to design and passion it's definitely lacking something though.

Here's the Jay Leno video:

I don't remember the last time seeing a new car made me this interested and excited.
