LOL I thought they were something rediculous like $20-$30k.

I think its cool that they developed the tire for the car. Yet the tread design is damn similar to the PS2s.

I'd hate to pay for that car wash. Much less anything else on that vehicle.

With those rear tires i'd never have to worry about traction, ever. Rain or shine.

It's too bad the thing only has 33.6 hp I don't know if I'd pay 1.2m for that especially when it weighs over 4000lbs.

HAHA nice typo 4.2 hp per liter (instead 1hp for every 4.2 pounds)

WOW, anybody else notice it's only got 5 lugs? hell the ctsv has 6 lugs, you would think they would put more than 5, i understand its "quality", so their 5 is probably equivalent to a 8, but still... going that fast on 5 lugs is kinda weird.
