I saw a Mclaren like that once at BK. Some Asian dude. Eating fast food. I wonder if he ate that double whopper in his Benz.

A supercar sure doesn't need 10 or 12 cylinders! Hell my favorite, the F40 is a V8. Granted a intercooled twin turbocharged one.


And on a side note, Ferrari say that the Enzo replacement will be a V8.

Awesome.

Extoics are awesome, what I would consider most of the cars you saw. There is a dealer here that I have seen many many Lamborghinis, a few Ferraris(including an Enzo and a delivery mile F430 spider), Benzs, Lotus', Ford GTs thats all I can think of.

Gorgeous cars. What's the deal with the top on this car:


Looks like something I could have made in my back yard.

As for the R8, I'd pimp it FOR SURE. Granted I don't consider it quite as exotic as the Lambo, but it's still an awesome car and tested really well for the gents on Top Gear.

The deal is that Spykers are just funky cars all-around.
But they are UBER rare.
