    Great Car

    This car does everything great. Its great looking,very fast,stops and handles fantastic. It rides firm in street mode,not harsh as some testers said. The seats are very comfortable. In race mode, it is harsh riding,but that is for the track. The shifter is very positive,with short throws. The never ending power of the V10 is almost scary. The fit and finish of the car is great. It draws a lot of attention,so I have to watch out for other drivers drifting over to me as they take pictures, one hand on the wheel,one on the camera. A lot of thumbs up and pointing. Always someone wanting to take pictures when you park it. I can work on it myself,something you cant do on other exotic supercars. Also,you dont see one on every corner.

    Most beautiful car I have ever owned

    The performance, of this car, equals car?s costing three, and four times the price of this car. If you drive it you will smile, from ear to ear.

    The most badass car I've ever owned.

    The car just looks like it's ready to kill you, but in reality you can daily drive it if you so choose. The aero looks like it belongs on a Le Mans' car. The interior has all the essentials needed to drive the car to the grocery store or on a road course. The stereo is on par with my iPhone...iPhone 3 that I owned almost 10 years ago. The performance this car puts out cannot be argued for it's price range. It's the best sports car I've ever owned.
