What do you think of this $8,000,000 super car.

Stop looking at me! Look at me! Stop looking at me!
Strange.

I don't like the front, I think they could redesign that grill a bit, but the overall shape isn't bad. Worth 8 mil? Color me skeptical. I'm not sure what color skeptical is, but that's what I am.

I dont have the slightest idea what makes this car worth 8 million.

I don't think they ever got past the concept stage of this car.

Definitely not worth my $8 million.

Why $8 million? It's not in production or anything.

As I said time ago what I like about it, and still do, is the fact that at least it doesn't look like a Mercedes-Benz.

Actually, it does slightly resemble the SL class.

Where did the 8m$ price tag come from? I think at 800,000 they'd probably sell a lot of them.

The video says it was built for the track

With a curb weight of 5864.3 lbs (2660 kilo) I'd say they failed miserably.

I would expect a roomier interior from a car of such girth.

On the other hand it does look pretty cool, but $8mil??

No car, no matter who made it, why they made it, or what it's made from, is worth $8 million

The host doesn't look Mexican but perhaps it is meant to be 8 mil pesos, makes sense to me.
