Don't think you got the memo, it's 2018, we don't say that any more.

Who said the Japanese don't have a sense of humour

It's Italian.

Yes, yes... you are quite right. Twin turbo V6 underpinnings and active 4-wheel steer platform. All Italian.

So have people finally figured out this is just a pretend car, all theoretical, drawn on a 'puter?

It'll never be a real thing, even the money is just theoretical nonsense.

I'm actually shocked at how much airtime it's getting.

The reason it would cost so much, FYI, is that if it's to be small volume, the tooling required to build it would be massive if they use the unit price to recoup it.

Now it's running up the hill at FoS, as you eat these words, do you want something to drink to help them go down?

It certainly was a milestone year for the FoS with an electric car winning the outright honours and this car managing to absolutely smash the record for cars that don't actually exist.

To be fair to PHMatt he does at least offer us a delectable insight into the economies of scale which we all would surely have been blissfully unaware of otherwise. Well done him.
