Ultima vs. whatever you can think of.

Okay, first thread. Pretty simple, the thread discussion topic is that of the ultima GTR, with the 640 engine and all the "toys" (apparently to ultima, "seats and a steering wheel"); can it be matched by anything you can think of, at least inn terms of sport-car-ness. That includes handling, acceleration, composure in bad conditions, comfort, and price. I don't think anything in its price bracket can even touch it, so 2 times as much is welcome for discussion

I think pretty much everything can have it on comfort. Price- how much is it?

Can you give us all the performance figures, statistics, etc?

Thanks, and welcome- you've opened a nice can of worms!

Yeah, that's the one. Stupidly quick, terribly ugly and hopefully destined to fail...

Bye bye Fxx, yeah i'm with you on that to, the Fxx would need a rope to keep pace!

And it isn't road legal so that would render pretty much useless here.

I personally would prefer something more relaxed but fast. So probably an Aston Martin DB9 SP.
