Jim,

If you can let me know...I'll sell my right and then they can have a nice pair of James nuts!

Here's a video that explains the car much better.

Now that I have seen and read a few things on this car, it is clear IF it ever gets built it will cost something like $500k! OMG! It is truly a SUPER, SUPER CAR! Unfortunately no one on this forum is likely to buy one new and very few here will ever own one at all! Sure will be a bad A$$ car though!

its a very nice design finally, lets hope Piech can do the same with the upcoming GT.

hear the engine a little at the very end of this clip

One of the news reports on Fox News was talking about this last night and said something about $90k and then about half under his breath he said something about personally thinking it would have been 10X that... I think the whoever set up the prompter for him needed to add another "0" because the talking head was RIGHT! This is the successor to the CGT, NOT some hybrid to fit in between a Cayman and a 911! It was $90k they would never sell another 911 or Cayman and they could not keep enough of these around!!! $900k...that might be to optimistic, but at $500k they will still sell as many as they want to sell!
