I always love reading about these cars. Especially the ones with the old 6.75L V8 that's been around almost as long as the SBC. Certainly it would be more interesting if it were affordable, but this is a pushrod engine (505hp @ 4200rpm if you don't believe me). I know.

Anyway, the article talks about this being as expensive as a house. I laughed at that but the as-tested price was $359,885. It's nearly TWICE the value of my house, actually. This car is awesome. I don't really understand why it costs this much but either way it would be unattainable.
I also laughed when they said how long it is. It's 6" shorter than a 93-96 FW!
The first guy irritated me. "I like small cars so this is too big."
The second guy produced a quote that at least Ed and I will laugh about. Please, allow me:
For a car that weighs as much as 1,180 5-pound barbells, it can take an onramp in anger while quietly sounding like it's accelerating from three states away
