I love it. It's an utterly insane car, akin to some of the wilder hot wheels, except they're actually going to make it. I don't even care how fast it goes around a track. If it looks that nuts and is a Lambo, it needs to be loud and go fast in a straight line. With 700+ HP, job well done.

Does this count as awesome, AI, or car???? Some dude in Japan will build you a mech for 1.3 million dollars. Has water bottle rockets, Gatling airsoft guns activated by smiling, and goes up to 10km an hour. Cup holder is extra. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iZ0WuNvHr8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29MD29ekoKI The best part about it is probably that it runs on diesel. http://suidobashijuko.jp/

Hmm actually I kind of like the new Ferrari look! The lambo, not so much. Edit: Christ, that is a loving terrible name. I finally looked at the article. Kachunkachunk fucked around with this message at 06:20 on Mar 6, 2013 |

I like that Ferrari but then I noticed the odd little centre lip which is red and then for some reason black. Bit peculiar... Very dirty photoshop. Considering the little uprights red too.

My favorite thing from Geneva so far: Link quote:According to ItalDesign Giugiaro, the Parcour weighs in at around 3,400 pounds is capable of a 0 to 62 run of 3.6 seconds and it boasts a top speed of around 200 miles per hour. Ride height is adjustable from the cabin, ranging from 8.2 inches all the way up to 13 inches. A kind of terrain dial can be used inside with settings for Comfort, Off-Road, Ice and Track modes.

I think it's supposed to emulate an F1 front diffuser, but yeah it doesn't look right considering how the whole car seems less F1 inspired than previous Ferrari hypercars.

Looks like a hot wheel, in a good way. Also the "Laferrari"(what were they thinking?) will probably look amazing in black.

I think the age of the raw, racecar-for-the-street supercar is gone. The things that engineers can do with electronically controlled drivetrains, suspension, and aerodynamics aren't allowed in racing and give the customers what they want: maximum performance without having to own a racecar that they can't show off on the street. The supercars of today are more "what-if?" racecars with leather interiors, and they sell well.

Technically not Lambo doors? (  sorry)I love the Parcour but it'll never see the light of day. I think it's one of the most interesting cars I've seen in years. Giugiaro designs The Best Cars, I'm pretty sure I can pick a car of his from every decade that's hands down my favourite.

One of these with a supercharged LS-whatever motor, 6 speed, cherokee AWD transfer case (np242?) and some King shocks and bumpstops.  It won't be pretty but you set set up in car ride height control, put it on the ground for road courses, and then bump it up and have a desert runner. Oh and don't forget the wood vinyl paneling.

The customers who can buy those cars want an expensive doodad penis extention that they can boast about to their rich mates. "Yes it has one of them F1 diffuser thingies exactly like Schumacher does! Now where a girl to suck my dick?" And I would have to point out there are a few racecar for the street supercars about, they tend to be hellishly quick but they dont sell because they dont have a badge. Ferrari on the other hand could sell 500 new F40 kind of monsters and have lines out the door demanding more. And frankly they should - throw out all the bullshit and go once again batshit insane with a genuine back to basics balls to the wall monster.
