Even if it was, you wouldn't be able to take it anyway. It has almost no ground clearance :lol:

The only thing these luxury sports cars have is top speed. It seems to be the trend with all exotics these days.

Top end doesn't really impress me much. I would run out of road and really don't care for attempting to manoeuvre around traffic. I would prefer to just get up to speed quickly. I love the solid grip - push you into the seat feel. :D

Do you love the Nissan GT-R then? 0-60 in less than 3 seconds and can withstand lateral forces in excess of a G.

this one is really nice to but has a little bit of miles

82,000 miles is nothing. Perfect for a used car.

I bet the cops likes you :p


I tentatively call it a "car" but yes, it would be cool to have.

Those days are over.

Hmm... I disagree. The new Avendator is focused on handling (according to Lamborghini anyways). More and more cars are focusing on handling. Even the Veyron has great handling for a car it's weight and power.

Many exotic car companies focus on handling and acceleration these days. Even a few years ago the 0-60 times on many cars are way slower than they are these days.

Of course handling has to come into play but, I'm being general in my point. Speed is just speed on the Boneville salt flats. :) Some of these cars are hitting over 300 MPH now! :lol:

Really? I love the tail lights! The rear simplicity is a bit Corvette-esque to me which I like. Corvette and GT-R have always been cars I really like. (even before the recent ones)

By "cars" you are referring to those long things with technically 4 wheels?

Since we are speaking about cars, I saw a cool car on the road to school today, a R8 :D

The tail lights are fine...

It's just so un-proportionately large. :p


It's really not terrible, but it could be better.
