Impressive tradition and torque. Not my thing though. Plus the only real super car in that lot tranced it. :lol: :wink:

So it isn't really faster than a Supercar at all - and it looks minging! What is good about it after that?

Your asking the wrong petrol head. If I had the means to do that to a vehicle I would at least start with a car, not a tank. :wink:

I kinda get it... forced to get an estate car and went for the A6 Avant 3.0 Bi-turbo... by all means not the quickest on the road but 0-60 in 5.1 so surprises some people. That said, wouldn't spend a truck load of money to prove a point though.
