The motor only made 550 hp @8700 rpm and 354 ft lbm. Pretty much identical to a Gallardo for double the price. Ben, in the local reviews it struggled against a GTR and a Zo6. I'm not impressed. It would have been fine if it cost $120k not $375k. Most manufacturers will that do R&d at the ring release ring times before the model is available.
