    Sweet car. Looks badass to boot.

    Like most have said, it shouldn't be compared with the GT-R. A comparison to the GT2, F430, SLR, Gallardo, is more like what it should be compared to. When you talk about reliability issues, what issues? You can't expect a high dollar performance car to not have issues. People buy them to go fast, and that comes with a price.

    You've got to think some though....of all the long ass straights on the Nordschleife, it would have smoked the GT2 with a 210+mph V10, but the margin was only a second.

    Some of you may be thinking, well damn...it probably doesn't handle for ****, but the Nordschleife tests high speed cars. Plain and simple. It's not easy getting a car to turn @ 175+

    When do they plan on producing the car?

    Just stating that a high speed car can easily overcome a car with similar characteristics, but has less top end on the ring. That's something you can't deny when the main straight is nearly 3miles long.
