Its a odd beast but i have always liked them somehow probably because it was in NFS 2
. Had a periscope rear view mirror which i read is not on the later version of this car, it had a automatic airbrake and active suspension which lowered the body like the veyron does.
I think it shares a few parts with porsche and also i remember it had window wipers off a 220mph German train.
Designed by an Ex porsche engineer and his sons IIRC.
Top speed was 213mph with 400bhp 5liter Merc V12 which is pretty amazing given the power must be very aerodynamic if those figures are true.
They also made one with a 6.9l Merc V12 with 540bhp IIRC.
I would like one even if it does look odd

Are you sure i only see the power figure and the active aero mentioned but why don't you post something useful to add to the thread about the car
or were you just having a bad day or something ?
Yeah an awful day, hence the smiley face
Actually, you might be on to something there!

The front looks Porsche 959, the side looks like a Mclaren F1 with the tale of an XJ220.
As someone else mentioned if 200mph+ is true from 400bhp then the designers did something right. I think it looks ok-ish I would much rather the cars it's design seems to beinspired from though...
