And I thought you were talking about the Bizzarrini Strada

Engine - Chevvy LS6 5.7 V8 (from the corvette Z06, 400bhp)
Location/drive - Rear/mid transverse layout with rear wheel drive. (Think Lamborghini Muria but with V8 rather than a V12)
Designer - Me
Body style - Coupe (exactly like the Muria but with a modern take on the styling)
Chassis - Tubular steel with hand beaten aluminium body panels. 40/60 weight distribution.
Tuned by - Porsche/RUF for the suspension (but with no ABS or traction control)
Colour scheme - Metallic Black (highly polished) and chamois leather interior with TVR knobs/switchgear (from Tamora)

Other - would run on natural gas so I wouldn't have to pay the government a mint everytime I take it for a drive. Would be dual fuel so I could run it on petrol for those longer trips.
Would have rotating number plates (007 stylee), active laser jammers (front & rear) and Origin Blue GPS system.
Would also have capability to drop spikes from rear to flatten tyres of any chasing cars. And a radio jamming function to jam the radios for 1/2 mile radius.

Did I miss anything?
