So, the new guy at work has just bought one of these. 572bhp, 527lbs/ft, 1831kgs.
Inevitably, we're going to find ourselves 'going the same way' so, how bad will it be? The only stats I have are from an old Evo mag (I believe it was against 'The Guv'nor'?) and they suggest that it's not hugely faster than an E46 M3
I also seem to recall a Performance Car comparison with the Jag XFR in which the Jag was supposedly a LOT quicker, which would correberate this...
A lack of 'vs' vids across the internet aren't surprising considering only 16 (apparently) were built. I might have to capture some video of the monster at full chat at some point too, as I understand they make quite a noise
