    They're pretty awesome inventions but who will ever drive them like they were built to be driven?

    FYI- registration is over 100 grand a year on one of them!
    lets hope he doesnt break anything, just hte little blinker switch (the little stick thing) is a good 30k. but im sure if u could afford 2 of them 30k is nothing more but chump change....

    Wow,
    I watched that with my mouth open, with dumb founded look on my face.
    (I mean a dumber founded look than usual.)
    I love it, just hate that front grille.
    I guess if I could afford one, I could change the grille a little.

    yea.. i believe the legal term for that kid is deceased
    ..so do you have to do 75% worth of damage to a car like that for them to total it.. or will your insurance pay hundreds of thousands to fix it i wonder

    I think if you fart within 100 yards of that car, it automatically places a call to the insurance company....

    So sad. I know others don't like the styling of it, but I think it's one of the sexiest cars out there right now. I could also be blinded by the sheer engineering marvel of the whole thing.

    I can't disagree with the major complaints here, but the car is really a retro-rod based off of the mid 1920's type 35 Bugatti. The main cgaracteristics to carry over are - The grill, the wheels, and the brushed steel interior. Besides if we are inside, who cares what the grill looks like.
