If we're being critical, don't the alloys look like something TSW would produce, albeit on a much smaller size, in the mid-90's? and forgive me, but for £300K (or the price of a shed in London) I would like something with a bit of drama, as opposed to a carrera with a roof chop.

Yes, I know that's not what it's about, I've read EVO's comments. But this is how I feel. A supercar should look super too. Zee Germans do not get zis! (apart from when they work with the Italians a la Lambo et al)

Did it get out on track? Or more importantly, did you hear it?
For me this is the best sounding car ever.

Yes it was out on the track.

I wasnt racing the coupe, I went to see my brother who was racing his 911 turbo.

I was in the passenger seat of the 911 so had a great view as we had 3 laps trying to stay on his tale!

The sound is awesome!

*IF* I had that sort of money and I wanted some real drama, I think I'd have to go for THIS absolute monster.

It does definitely have a toylike quality to it . I think its because its such a tonka-toy colour, plus looks so outrageous it could just be a closeup of a radio controlled car .

Matt you disappoint me. I was 100% expecting a link to a sEnny.

Mate, the budget is only 300k! I did the best with the meagre resources available to me.

The tyre bill alone for the rare 175/300/14's allround is astonishing on a Senny.

The one I saw scraping its underside over a curb as it drove into a car park didn't sound too good! (The look on the driver's face was priceless)

Nice enough looking, and hugely capable...but just something about them that is kinda dull.

This was another GT (silver) driving into PC World in Oxford...not quite as exciting.

So far I've seen a Carrera GT, 2 Gallardos and a Maclaren F1 in that car park (and, more importantly, Tipoboy's Coupe!!) - can only assume there is some rich sod with a nice collection of toys not far away who needs ink refills nearly as often as fuel.
