I like the interior.
A car like this SHOULD have a ridiculous interior.
I agree.A car like this SHOULD have a ridiculous interior.
My main problem with the interior is the humongous MPH number staring you in the face.
The few times I have driven in cars that display numbers instead of a dial it drove me nuts because it's very distracting every time it changes by 1 mph. It should have an option to switch between the numerical and a simulated dial.

...the car will, in time, be despatched to the Nürburgring in an attempt to prove American supercars can do corners as well as big speeds...
I think the Corvette and Viper proved that, not to mention the Shelby Cobra Daytona coupe beating Ferrari to win the championship and the Ford GT40 winning LeMans four times in a row... And, FFS, the name is pronounced "Two-Ah-Tah-Rah"- that's four syllables.

If you look at Fisker Karma, you can see the influence of DB9. They were done by the same designer. But one is a saloon, the other is a GT coupe. One was designed and built in the US, and the other was all done in the UK.
And with a keystroke history is abandoned. The Fisker Karma is built in Finland currently. Bit of a controversy in the usa too for being made overseas and have received a significant government loan.

A 6.8 litre forced induction V8 producing 1350hp that revs to 9,200rpm?!
Will believe that when I see it.
Beautiful exterior though, would love to see it make production.
Interior looks fine in red, hideous in white.
They're already selling the Ultimate Aero with 1200 odd. Not much of a jump.Will believe that when I see it.

Never read that it revs to anywhere near 9,200rpm though! Is it going to be overhead cam or pushrod? I know NASCAR pushrods can rev to 10k, but never heard of a production road engine doing so.WCZ said:
according to the mph readout on the right hand side the car was going 275mph whilst that photo was taken, is this not a tad dangerous considering no one appears to be holding the wheel?
Given that I'm pretty sure that's a rendering, it's just a computer game so who cares ? "What's your latest car then?"
"The ttterer"
I'm liking it more already

So many remarks, and no one made a comment about the 7 gates for the manual transmission in the red interior? If that links to a gear in every slot... then Porsche isn't the only one to offer a 7 speed manual.
7 gates would, I'd have thought, equate to six plus reverse?Gassing Station | General Gassing | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
