Where is you have got this info?
On caterham's site i saw 240 kmh,
500hp(http://www.caterham.co.uk/assets/html/February_2008.pdf)
I think this car sucks.
RST-V8 company did this caterham some years ago. It was 320 hp power first and
575 kg, because it's sv version of caterham for not only "little" people. It was
quite raw tuning. They have been developing this car but i don't think they had
much money so it's raw now too. And now caterham want to boast of their new
politics, new revolution progress and new cool models and i think caterham
arrenges with this little company, that caterham calls it's caterham car and
this company say nothing about real creators of this car. And they have to
limited max speed, which is the biggest defect of caterhams because of they not
much power. It's stupid idea, they had to work with aerodinamics, but they don't
want to spend some money to do it. And 520 kg is not true mass i think. On
caterhams site was written "from 520". I don't think it realy weighs less than
575. And last thing. It costs 230000 dollars. It's three caterham R500. It's
very much more real price.
So i think it's raw and very expensive car and have no advantage over r500 maybe
except time from 100kmh-....

Contrary to what they say, your right it IS restricted to 150 BUT, it does do
200 even..
no it does NOT... in stock trim it does 150mph... if modded with removed limiter
it isnīt stock anymore... most German high power cars are restricted to 155mph
no matter how much faster they could go without limiter.. the topspeed is 155mph
..and the Caterham topspeed is 150mph

its limited to 200 cause its bull shit but it WILL hit 215..and i should
know..so yes 200 PEAAACE..

no way. its a waste of money, thats why there only going to make 7, not because
its great, but because CaterHAM new that NOBODY would buy this waste of money,
im not saying its a bad car but its TOO damned expensive, the CSR260 is already
plenty fast and track capable, since they have that i dont see any point in
making this, if ya want a fast car for $198,000 and 500 bhp get a Fisker Latigo
CS now THATS th PERFECT car..
