It's just a pity it looks like an AMG Walkinshaw with all the plastic bits tacked on.
Cheers Russ

Not to mention...these "tacked on plastic bits" helped it do its blistering time, doing its best to match function & form.

At this level it is all about extracting as much as possible. Not cosmetic like the locals did or WRXs, etc.

Hold on .... the 'Ring has had speed limits in place through a few sections now ... car makers havn't been able to do out and out testing for sometime now. How does this get through at the times listed.

All in all this is a weapon, I like the look and the interior looks great. Would own in a heart beat.
Tackedvon to me means getting a taxi then bolting plastic bits on. This car is bespoke so nothing added to a base model, there is no bade model of this car. |

you have little idea havent you? Do you really think this vehicle has more plastic fantastic than a HSV/FPV. They have spent millions on R&D to have active diffusers etc to limit the plastic look of HSV's and you think its comparable? You simply havent a clue

Probably a good thing he didn't quote the correct post ... otherwise it would have been a very short stay.

I'd be very happy with that car. Not that it matters. Sadly I don't think I'll ever be in a position to own a car costing half a mil.
