I cant decide if the scrotum is a good idea or not. but this version looks really good. I hope it makes it to Top Gear

I like every angle of this vehicle.

It's like an enzo with koenigsegg touches surrounding a P4/5 cockpit.

Far better name than 'Ultimate Aero' ever was, but that's not saying much.

My comments from the earlier thread have disappeared but I fail to see the connection between this car and a reptile. If considering a name from the animal kingdom I think several species of sharks would have been a much better choice to match Jason's design and the streamlined nature of the car's shape.

Anyway, don't forget to roll the 'r' when you say Tuatara.

Yeah, I love the car but I can't say I'm a fan of the name. Tuatara doesn't fit the car at all.

I agree with Peloton, it should've been named after a shark. Longimanus for example, sounds much better.
