GOTVENOMGT500 Posted June 15, 2010 Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 They are cool cars, only seen 2 in person, powered by an Oldsmobile Aurora V8 315 HP or so from what I remember. Pretty quick and cool looking cars but thought they were underpowered for the asking price new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burning Blue Star IV Posted June 15, 2010 Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 Interesting..I've never heard of that car before...looks like sort of a Porsche/Viper combo to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tpenziner Posted June 15, 2010 Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 I remember when these came out, never saw one in person... I thought pretty much the same, it reminded me of a Corvette/Porsche merged into one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmn444 Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 I've seen one up close, and going from memory here, what stuck out in my mind was that some of the fiberglass parts weren't finished very nicely, still had the wavy texture to them. I wasn't super impressed, but i like the overall look of the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmn444 Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 I suppose i should clarify, I think the body is carbon fiber, but the texture under the paint looked like fiberglass that hadn't been properly finished prior to paint.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
