Interesting how everyone wants it now and hated it back when it was posted and people thought it was just an R8 V10 with an ugly body kit lol. I love it btw.

Love it. Looks ever better in flesh. Looking forward for test reviews. Looks is not enough nowdays, interesting to see how it actually performs.

Well we already know how good the R8 chassis is-now they have shaved some weight and threw the LP560 engine in it. I'm sure it's gonna rock

Something I've always wondered: Does the rollcage make the cars chassis stiffer and thus improving it on the race track or is its only function to make the car safer?

Usually a bit of both. Although if not done correctly, it doesn't do anything but add extra weight.
