It just can't be beat by anything in production.

Now, keep in mind, I can't imagine spending a half million bucks on a CAR. But I wouldn't mind driving one a few times.

1. It might be tough to haul home a lot of groceries in this or a

2. The baby's car seat might also be an issue for some people
I have to imagine.

But then, if you own a car that costs a half million, then chances are you pay someone to carry ladders, groceries and kids.

5. Have you seen the BBC "Top Gear" show?
They had an episode a while back with a car that was basically a liter sportsbike engine with an aluminum frame.
It was faaaast.

7. This is what the commercial for that should be like:
(Carrera GT spins around winding roads and race track)

Announcer:

"Have you ever wanted a car... That would make you cum your pants??... We have."

(Car then cranks up to 120mph on the race track)

11. Bumper sticker says: "If this car were a horse, I'd have to shoot it"
Or "This is not an abandoned vehicle."
