Tesla has some SERIOUS competition

I'm not going to assume that SSC has "great feeling" cars considering with low production numbers also comes a distinct lack of real road testing. SSC is kindof an upstart company that came out of left field and showed up on the scene, with most people having never heard of them before their ultimate aero claim. They don't have the same kind of history that some handbuilts have. Aston (Which produces easily 10x what SSC does and makes some of the best "feeling" and highest quality cars in the planet).

thats very true, i wouldn't assume it to be very refined, i think i would like that though, something raw and beastly, shear torque and speed............i doubt this thing would be a track killer, or any ssc car right now, but hell getting out of the gates and getting popular might be pretty easy with the lineup they have now

That thing is pretty sweet.

Depends depends. I'm not a fan of SSC at the moment, but they have a pattern they can follow. Pagani is a new company too, people forget that. Pagani does not even build their own motors, they buy them from AMG/Mercedes. (Which is ten times funnier that the Italian Supercar maker that took up Lambo's OLD persona that died when Audi bought them and turned them into competition with Ferrari buys it's engines from Audi's competition!) And they've managed to latch on HARD...but Pagani did something brilliant, the Zonda looks ridiculous, is fast as hell (7.0+ Liter AMG V12 depending on which trim level Zonda you get) and is incredibly put together, good ride, good feeling, great interior, tons of passion, beautiful paint, and incredible handling, all in one package. If SSC can step that direction rather than trying to swing at Bugatti (Which has all of what Pagani has and some name recognition to boot) then I'll be head over heels.
