That's pretty cool. Being covered in white gold may be over the top but w.e

Not white gold, but chrome. There are 2 more of them in UK.
Don't know about the powertrain though.

I did a thread long ago in 2008, but the pictures doesn't work anymore lol.

Featuring the V10 quad turbo cranking out 1,600 horsepower & 2800nm of torque, 0-100km/h in less than 2 secs?! 1/4 mile in 6.89 secs and it runs on biofuel. And this my friends, this is not in Jay’s garage… Yet. This white gold speedster is owned by an Abu Dhabi oil billionaire.
Wtf? since when lol.

I want to facepalm everytime this car gets brought up. It isn't white gold, it's a Dupont paint and the motor is stock. It doesn't do 0-60 in under 2 seconds, doesn't have 1600hp, etc.

I dont care what kind of hp it has you are not going to get a car with RWD layout and that much hp off the line and up to 60 in less than 2 seconds unless its a drag car with 24" wide slick tires.

I am calling BS.




Let me check my meter

Very nice. I like the liquid mercury look.

You can do this to a Delorean too if you polish it. But they are pretty ugly IMO.
