Some figures:
Type: V8 bi-turbo
Displacement: 4.163 cc
Horsepower: 660 bhp @ 6000 rpm
Torque: 850 lb ft @ 4500 rpm
Weight: 1.150 kg!
Top: 360 km/h
0-100 km/h: 3.0 s
0-200 km/h: 8.9 s

There is coming a version with a bigger turbo and 800 HP... just imagine how fast that version would be
 
EVO Magazine said its epic power but a bit on the rough side and really an everyday car... Not at all...

Anyway, I love it..
 
Well it's like a TVR, except even more powerful, but probably safer.
 
its basically a fully stripped race car, powered by Audi, thats somehow road legal. meaning its awesome. and it looks intense on top of that, except for the back
:thumbsdown:

only others need look at the back! :lol:
 
I first saw this at this year's gumball movie premiere.
I do not know if I like it or not. The lines are a bit all over the place.
BUt since it is made by germans, it has got to be cool! :thumbsup:
 
I think it looks like the Veyron?s nicer brother. I like it! :thumbsup:
 
In case people wanna drive it, buy World Racing 2... ;-)
 
All the magazines have had a go, they all say it's stupidly farst, but not exactly an every day car yet. Suprised the show hasn't had it.

yeah they say its on the rough side but the car is not really finished yet. There is a lot of finetuning to do. They're speaking about a huge turbogap (don't know the exact words in english). It would be accelerating kind of slow in the beginning, but at 3000 rpm the turbo gets in and the acceleration would be absolutely crazy. So thats a thing they have got a lot of work on.
 
Turbo Lag, its called.

Saw it in real life. They were testing it at the Nordschleife.

This is their official website. It's kind of a sideproject of MTM. I know a guy who's involved in the project.

did you see it being tested? i wanna know what it sounds like. i heard that it in the low 9's on the entire nurburgring, not just the north section, when it was driven by a potential owner. :shock:

Jup, first lap it drove past me. It was very quick. I think it would do it around 7 min late 40 sec range (Carrera GT territory) on the Nordschleife alone. But it's still in development, so it's just a geuss. Haven't driven it myself either, so...
It is one hell of a car, although, I wouldn't like driving it on a daily basis.
