could be nice to see how this car goes around a track. i'm not a bit fan of the design.. but it's great looking.

I have noticed, especially in the exotics world, new brands get treated harshly.

I think this car looks great. It might not be the best but it is still good. I have somewhat followed it for a while now. They are alsmost ready for production finally. But wait a couple years and you can get one with 1300hp. At least they claim that, we will have to wait and see. I always welcome new brands, it provides different options and new competition to push the boundaries.

As far as center driving position, I have always gone back and forth if I like it. It is kind of weird if you are bringing just one passenger, especially your wife.

Not my style at all, but I feel like people would praise it if a well-known manufacturer produced it. I do have to give them a ton of credit for using a centered driver. Hope to see more of that
100% right. I would love to see a demonstration where they put two groups of people in two separate rooms. They show both groups pictures of a car like this that they have never seen. They tell one group it is a Ferrari and the other they tell them what it really is(HTT Plethore, Canada's first supercar) and see the different reactions.

I disagree. I think if informed enthusiasts as opposed to fanboys were to see a Ferrari that looked like that, some might like it, but the vast majority would have strong negative opinions about it. Heck, even the 458 Italia took some harsh criticism when it first came out. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

It's in the nature of the province. Copy something, but never quite as good. And with a mullet.

dmanero is an unknown quantity at this point
I'd have to agree a true car lover would have a diffrent opinion over say a person who drives a car from point A to point B and doesn't bother himself over the looks.

now as for the car, well, I have to agree its out dated and a few design cues from various models, eg, the side intakes from an SSC, the front bumper, f360, and the center driving position from the Maclaren. the list goes on.


So
