I'd rather have an Ariel Atom for a few hundred thousand less.

0-60 in 2.7

@nutbastard ('Zune' is Canadian for 'iPod'): Agreed.

And if I want something close-topped, there's always the upcoming Caparo Freestream car, designed by McLaren's former engineers. My goodness is it lovely.

@Kaiser-Machead:

Seems to have a hint of Lotus 340R in there, topped off with some Koenigsegg fugliness.

That's an awesome car but I wouldn't exactly say that 500k for a 3.6 0-60 is a good value. The Corvette ZR1 pulls a 3.3 0-60 and a 1/4 mile of 11.2 secs for a paltry 100k.

Looks like the designer took some cues from mid 90s Hotwheels for inspiration. And I am not saying that is a bad thing.

Ok, other then being really fast, how is that car a "jet" at all?

Looks really fast.

Tandem seating arrangement FTW. The only thing better is McLaren F1's 1+2x1 seating.

@Today is Cordfucious 32nd Birthday: I'll take one, in pink, with a big ol' picture of Miley Cyrus on it.

I'll call it the "Hannah Tramontana" and annoy people with it! Weeeeeee! An F1 and a Jet? I got the Best of Both Worlds!

Oh god, what have I become?
