unbelievable performance supercar. It's my ultimate car, no question. However it is a chrysler, so I wouldn't trust its reliability. But you can't deny 850bhp, and 0-62 in 2.9

Motor Trend did a head to head performance test where it put the ME412 up against an Enzo, CGT and Gt40. It completely owned them. I'll post the specs on that test when I find it in my MT vault......

Amazing car. Not the best to look at but technologiacly thinking it is pushing the boundries and making other car makers produce even better cars. Which isnt a bad thing

I really think that if pushed into production we could have an 'industrial revolution' in the American Car Industry. Maybe there would be races to build the fastest car in the world between GM and Ford and Chrysler. That would be great

I believe it is such a great start to revolutionizing the way American cars are looked at in the supercar market. I could not be any happier about this advancement.

No, the Firepower is a coupe aimed at the Corvette and Mustang. Here is the ME412...





Got LED'S?

i've seen it on the track, and it looked great, however it was all alone, so i can't judge it otherwise.

Well, it's funny. My dad has a 4 year old Chrysler 300M, no more warranty, and has never needed any repairs done to it. Well, I guess the pigs fly, (Pink Floyd's 'Animals' cover), hell froze over in that old Miller ad, a small sacred select few women can drive, and the whole blonde thing is stupid. 'Dumb blondes' came back from earlier in the 20th century, when people thought when people dyed their hear blonde, the fumes made them stupid. So natural blondes aren't.

The Chassis is made by Pagani.

It isn't a Zonda.
