I don't want any car that I need a HANS device to drive down a straight line for 7 seconds...

Oh, and with 8 wheels, I would definitely buy replica rims to keep upgrade costs down!

I saw that video a while back. Horrid looking car. Also, what about the rest of the car? The whole package so to speak. My neighbor kid has a mazda MX-8 riced out that could probably put on a good show too, but not when it comes to suspension, steering, brakes, etc. I wonder what the drainage on the battery is like when accelerating like that.

I've never seen such an insult to the memory of the citroen DS.

Remember the pontiac aztek? and the subaru tribeca? and so many more... There's just no excuse for aesthetically awful vehicles such as these. Manufacturers who produce these kind of monstrosities deserve bankruptcy followed by a long jail term. With such a display of bad judgment how could one ever trust their engineering prowess? Maybe thats the problem, there was no Designer just a few engineering students who got the driveline working and then covered it as best they could.

Its like looking at wreck, after an initial glimpse you dont want to look anymore but you have to, just to marvel in the chaos and disharmony of it.

I like the comment "...And it does not feel as big or as heavy as its length and 2,400kg kerbweight suggest."!

And it goes faster than a Porsche Turbo? I bet it goes around corners really well too. ha.

I have to go and take a nap now...
