a Korean guy released one of these for Racer a while back, before the Gallardo came out, so I'm doubting these guys had any design stealing from Lambo.
but i do kinda like the looks, despite it being kinda ricey.

What about PRICE? I haven't found any quotes. I think it's success will depend on whether it costs more like a Gallardo or a Hyundai(also Korean) get it. HA. :roll:

It's a nice car (meaning that there are a lot worse cars). I don't think that I'll buy one, but I'm not going to poop on it either.
Do you think that Korea could build a REAL competitive exotic or race-only car?

It looks terrible and by the looks of the specs you can't call it a supercar either.

That 4.6 V8 with 320 BHP, sounds like it is the Ford DOHC engine from the 1999-2001 Mustang Cobra

The styling looks kind of dated even now.

The question remains, will the car survive more than a week of hard driving. But if it's cheap, maybe the koreans will soon be known as the pioneer of "disposable supercars".  Everything is disposable nowadays.

It may not be sooo bad. I once got my sister's Hyundai Accent up to 166kph. It took a long time but the car was only $8000 new and it still runs (like crap).

It will probably go to production considering that it's from an independent company. Also the look is coincidental because the overall design of the spirra was already developed way before the Gallardo.
