I would rather have a
Porsche Carrera 4  for winter
2 Ferraris for the rest of the year, a weekday Modena and a well restored 246GTS for Sunday drives.

The change could buy a couple of cases of Ch.Petrus for comfort on cold winter evenings.

does seem like an impressive machine though. A triumph of engineering over common sense and the laws of physics.

What a fascinating machine!!!  :o

And apparently one I can fit into. Designed to accomodate 6'-7"ers? - A true miracle!

Some of the specs on this thing are amazing, including that fuel economy... or lack thereof. It's gotta rank as the most gorgeous car in my book.

Hope she's a runaway success!

It's a fantastic vehicle and only jet planes can be compared to it's power and speed.  Looks are subjective and while this thing isn't ugly by any means (I think it looks better than an Enzo), I still find the Porsche Carrera GT a much better design.

I think it's great because somehow it has a blend of style that looks at home on the track, or the street, or in front of a posh restaurant for a night on the town. She's no one-trick performance pony. Actually has some room, and the incredible attention to detail. I'm a fan of the two-tone exterior as well. The shape isn't exactly like the typical ultra low and long, wide profile of an Enzo, Diablo, Carrera GT either. It brilliantly outclasses a Benz CL AMG and outguns the Carrera GT at the same time. And nothing could match the cachet.
