I mentioned to my wife that 0-60 in 3.something seconds was definitely Cerbera territory. Now I absolutely love and "get" Ferraris but at £170+K it made no sense as a track car (which is where it was aimed) when a Cerb could offer it genuine competition for 1/10th of that price.

I think the kind of person who can afford to spend £170k on a toy is not going to be enticed by a TVR laugh and i'm surmising that a 430 in any guise would be significantly quicker round any track that wasn't a straight line!
