And a little bit of MG SV.

a tad? Duesies were the ultimate luxury cars though. Didnt Clark Gable have one or two?
|
Ok, you got me, they are freakin massive. I don't know if Clark Gable had one or two, but Leno has a couple of them. Built from the actual blueprints.

70 mpg? Wow that would be impressive for a big luxury cruiser like that.

I think it looks pretty good. Nice oldschool appeal. If they really pull off all that they say they will, this car is going to be one hell of a technological showcase.

that new engine they're talking about sounds incredible. 70MPG and 300hp in the same engine is crazy :shock:

wow very cool engine. a lot of their claims seem a little far fetched, and very non-technical, but its a very cool design. I'm curious if they switched the hp and torque figures though... 200hp but 650lb ft is unreal. I just figured out how it worked and its a really creative engine, I'm just waitining to see some figures from a finished engine
good find black_magician

^^ it's sounds pretty nuts, 600lb ft at 2000 rpm. I wonder how useable the power will be on an everyday road car.

from the rear, it looks like a Gallardo going forward..
70mpg from a V12? hmm.. and it has that nifty Bose suspension that jumps over speed bumps!
I wonder If we will actually see this car in a year..
