The body isn't so bad, but the whole headlight.... region is problematic. That orange color isn't doing it any favors either.

I don't know why these companies waste time and money on these silly concepts, other than the vanity of the owner. VW loose something like $6 million on each Veyron. It took them years of work to get a gearbox that would work with any reliability with 1000 hp. There is no way a startup outfit could do anything with that is in any way usable for 1/6th the cost. Yes, there are engines that will make that, and yes there are gearboxes that will handle that, but not any you would want to use on the road in a hyper car.

This. It looks pretty cool but the front reminds me of a Saint Bernards saggy mouth.

Its supposed to be a hot devils car for stud drivers to pull mint girls.
What it achieves is broadcasting is brainless squandering, a lack of taste and a swollen to the point of mutation ego.
Would you want to pull the sort of girls this car would pull.

If it's a true American car you know that answer
Speaking of, I'm surprised America isn't a go to country for hyper cars anyways. A hyper car is just stupid when you think about it. Crazy looks and so much horse power you can ignore fancy steering and handling because it doesn't work going that fast. That sounds like us to me anyways why are we still late to the game?
