When and if that thing definately gets put into production, the'll improve the looks..."tweak it". Have to think they will because the 5.0 cammer is a reality

What's rice about it? It's supposed to be a purposed built racecar....Is the Cobra R rice then? I think it looks nice and mean...everything that was done to it has some functionality, unlike what ricers do which has no function or purpose other than to look "hot" or be "in"

You're right, it is functional. But hell, you DON'T need a wing that large to be functional, much less one that ugly. The mighty chrome gas tank, huge GT-R logo, nice unmatching carbon fiber hood, butt *** ugly exhaust.....it's a nice body style, they just ruined it. If you guys knew who designed the car, you'd understand.

and.....I'm guessing that's why these cars need those HUGE *** wings to help the rear stay on the ground.....





It's NOT necessary to have that large of a wing on a car that isn't going to go 250+mph.

You can be correct in assuming that numerous NASCAR teams have and they're not necessary

how about indy cars man....im sure you know alot about the downforce an indy car produces, and why its necessary...please dont say its for looks...and nascar, seriously man, they have elevated tracks. the downforce isnt necesarry....if they raced on flat tracks, they would flip in the turns
