Yeah i was a lil dissapointed about the power when it came out, but thats what the V10 version is for:)but the V8 version is still one hell of a performer. but hey maybe in the near future theyl come out with a LeMans RS version, who knows.

I know what everybody will say, but screw the naturally aspirated shit, i just wish they would have turboed this baby. A statement car like this should have had at least a cool 500hp.

Exactly. 16 years are eternity. Everything can change 180 degrees. Only thing that is persistent and will outlive the Solar system itself is fastestlaps.com ๐Ÿ˜‡

I remember finding this site around 2010. I originally joined as Viking, which refers to my Scandinavian faith. Somehow life occurred and I stopped visiting the site around 2014. I am glad to be back, but it appears that I missed a few legends like Cosimo. I find this site to be great for car comradery and fun comparisons. I spend as much time here, as I do on Facebook.
