Default The future is here...

The Porsche 918 Spyder, this the future of high performance vehicles. I personally think the car looks great and all the technology put into it, makes it an engineering marvel. I am sure other car companies will develop their own systems, but this is the first hybrid vehicle that gives me hope that future vehicles will continue to create excitement and give us one helluva driving experience.

Ran a 7:14 at the Nurburgring. It is in the late testing phase now. Can't wait until the car mags and Top Gear start testing it.
