I work at a movie theater that shows independent movies (I'm still in high school ) and John Cleese came in about 3 weeks ago.

But anyways, that car is awesome, the top gear video never gets old

Not that I have any personal experience but from what I read, it does belong in the supercar ranks...even with the Ford engine. I wouldn't put it in the same league with the prancing horse. Ferrari's are in a league of their own. Simply because old Enzo and crew were doing this before most of us were born. This might be the subject of another post but my top three are:
Ferrari
McLaren
Lambo...kinda iffy, though. I don't think Lambo is keeping pace. They are sliding to pimpmobiles.
Like I said, this is based only on what I read...and a little personal preference.

I feel a new mod trend coming, Koenigsegg Doors, the lambos doors are now old news. gotta have the K-doors to be cool

Pricewise at least , it's more expensive than many Ferrari's, this should give you an idea:

Just a bit
Lexkost, I think even you could fit in one of these. The guy from top gear is also very tall and he didn't really have a problem.
