• 100 km/h in just 2.8 seconds
• Top speed 395 km/h.
• Only 7 units to ever be made.

i actually like something u posted
as overpriced as it is, it's probably sold out

395kmh? I highly doubt it. That's just under 250mph.

I'll take a bugatti, a murcialago, 2 e30 m3s, a singer 911, a yellow bird, a 355 f1, and maybe a few odds and ends for them instead please. It looks like a 3.4 million dollar stormtrooper helmet on wheels.

how does the door open?

Looks like a LFA and Lambo rip off

It's one of those designs that I'm sure looks fantastic as a drawing, but when made real... it just doesn't translate as well. The pinched mid-rift just makes it look really weird. Well, so does the rest of the design.

I seriously doubt the 395km/hr claim, however. Not enough power and it doesn't look like it has a terribly great drag coefficient.

Headlights look slightly Arashed. I wonder what the molds were made out of... :fullofwin:

I'd rather buy 10 Aventadors than a car that sounds like something growing on a rock.:D

Yeah, it does look like a storm trooper. For 3.4 million, you're not getting the force from Star Wars with that ride.

I'd buy an Aventador, a Ferrari F12 Berlinetta, a Koenigsegg Agera, and a Pagani Zonda for that amount of money instead.

Isn't the maybach exelero more expensive or that new lambo?? Maybe I'm wrong...

The only splash this thing will ever make will be price tag wise.

Maybe 395 is the redline of the last gear, when the car is in the air?

Atleast they chose a good engine...TT flat six by RUF :sweetjesus:

concept car

looks like a cross between a LFA x FRS x r8

why do people doubt 395km/h?

look at McLaren F1, 627hp, 391km/h

Because there is no video or any proof it does it. Just a claim.

but if you compare other cars...they're achieving same topspeed with less hp

McLaren F1
627hp
391km/h

:rukidding:
There are more factors then just HP lol

Gumpert Apollo, one of the most aerodynamically efficient cars does not look very smooth either

very nice, but my pick still goes to the McLaren F1=)

What makes it so expensive? The fact that it was designed in Dubai for rich people who lives in Dubai?

Its a relatively new company that thinks it can capture the world's attention by putting a stupidly high price tag on their first car. I think the Top Gear (UK) crew will hate it.
