Jacques Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 That is some ugly car... Totally destroyed. Nah, a GT1 Esprit any day kind regards, Jacques. Quote Nobody does it better - than Lotus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post gvy Posted May 11, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 (edited) I kinda like it. This car isn't about being beautiful. It is a real race car, built for that one purpose. It is no LOTUS . It has a tubular race chassis, with proper brakes and a turbocharged AUDI engine with 829wHP. And it looks brute with its modified Giugaro body. I do really taste this one, And on a race track it looks fast and intimidating.

Cheers Brooke - not without their problems though. I just wish I could get the red Turbo on the road but that's proving rather harder than I'd hoped. Yellow one is nice and shiney though 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
