However great this car, you just don't have to be as brave to drive it as the originals... Listen to this and tell me you don't gulp at the prospect of firing it in anger! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKOki34YkK4&fea...

Listen, that car looks cool, but would you not rather have an updated version of the real thing?? You can now buy these in the USA, not only do they sound and go as fast as the originals but they are a hell of a lot safer:

Looks nice, but hardly a Can-am version IMHO.

Do that on the spyder version, but get rid of all the glass, including cutting off the front windscreen.
Like Koenig did with a Diablo? smile
