Well done. The engine, exterior, interior, everything is much better, than the new McLaren MP4-12C. Even, the price is lower.

This is bad... this is really bad. More of a slap in the face to one of my all time favorite sports cars.

Yeah, except it's still ugly and the MP4 will be a better driver's car.

You are starting to sound like Ferrer.

Thanks for the compliment. It's nice to know that there are people out there who notice my wisdom too.

I guess there's nothing with being a crotchety old 20 something.

It's an elite club. Membership is limited.

I am not so sure. Even if Mclaren would be better to ride, it is not much, and feel it will be possible only on the racetrack. Most potential buyers will not notice. On the other hand, better build quality, service availability, lower price, will appreciate it.

If the car purchased for the track, it is better to take something like Radical.

i now actually think it pulls off the retro look terribly... the mustang et al get away with it because they do it so completely. this is like a mix and match, like the reverse of slapping a full vertex body kit on the original toyota 2000gt

Looks like a Honda S2000 with a body kit

Possinly not modernized very well, though. The back end really doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the car. Unlike the 458 Italia, the more I look at this car, the uglier it gets.

I think it'd look a hell of a lot better in the flesh, but there are some.. unfortunate.. parts about it in pictures.
