Tuning Houses

[RoSmith]

Hi everyone,

I'm curious... Has anyone purchased from or had dealings with a tuning house such as Hamann or Novitec Rosso?

Especially with companies such as Hamann, they seem to be very high price and low volume. Has anyone actually bought one? Was is worth it? Are they that much better than the original vehicle?

I was talking more about super cars that have undergone the tuning house treatment. The Hamann SLR volcano and whatnot.

There were some excellent examples at Geneva this year. Has anybody actually bought one?
