Little known fact: the custom body panels are actually sourced from stolen Dodge Viper hoods.

2743 lbs?? That thing is heavy!!!
(as compared to a Miata)
I guess with 1244bhp, weight doesn't mean much!

considering it has a twin turbo v8 and is much larger than an exige, I think its actually fairly light.

keep in mind its put together by a fairly small business (compared to the companies making your average lambo/ferrari)

I know, I was being sarcastic about it being "heavy".


and Vlad...I see it says "the Bauce" under your avatar...that's cool.
Perhaps a Bruce Springsteen photo would be more appropiate than a turbo?

goddamn it Lana Del Rey is so hot.

she's also credited with being the first female (read: non-rapper) to mention the Bugatti Veyron in a song.
