See it in action and you'll love it!!! What a beautiful car! Reduced to the max. That's what you need in the Black Forrest. small bending roads wherever you go. It's a must!
 Successor to the seven?

While this is an awesome car I do not think it could be a successor to the seven in the way suggested. The seven became legendary courtesy of its simplicity, light weight, small engine and low cost. This car qualifies in the light weight and small engine stakes, but not in simplicity or low cost. It is not a car which one would want to buy as a kit and put together in ones backyard, it uses materials like carbon fibre, which push up the cost, and the engine, while it may not be the most advanced engine, is already highly tuned, unlike like the original low powered but fast seven. It does not have the same capacity for modification at home - it would need professional engineers to modify the performance (although I do not know why you would want to), and only being built in limited numbers means that it will probably never become a kit or production car in the same way that the seven did. That said, its still awesome.
 you had a ride in this..............

Two years ago, I had a ride with an experienced driver in a 340R, on the circuit of zolder in belgium!!! Really spectacular, not only the looks but also the sound, the speed, the brakes... Exceptional car!

I love this car. Everything I read about it sais it's the most fun car to drive. I even dig the style. It's original to the max and completely head turning. It's like a go-kart on acid. If you ask me, I say, make more, give it more power, and bring em to the states. I'd buy one in a heart beat.
