I simply cannot express in words how much I love this name. The thought that must have gone into researching it is incredible and the result is beyond comprehension. It is also very exotic and way different than any other American supercar before it. Tuatara FTW!!!!

Hey Kevin, I left SSC a few months ago. So now there's SSC and there's Junus,

Hey Junus, I hope you got an Ultimate Aero as a golden parachute for your service.

Yes they do. Maybe Bimota let Tuatara's registry go, maybe SCC bought it. Maybe it's still registered in Italy but won't be a problem here in the U.S. Still, not original.

I have a feeling "industry specific" would include all motor vehicles, automobiles and motorcycles falling into that category.

I can't believe how small the car looks next to people. In the teaser shots it is sitting by itself, which makes the size perspective difficult. This car will be awesome!

Does anyone know the planned production numbers? Heard only a dozen cars or so from someone here.

sorry if this is slightly off-topic, but are you able to comment on what made you decide to leave SSC just before the release of their newest accomplishment?
