SSC is no joke. I would love to hear that engine. 1350hp? boost must be sky high. The styling is a bit too showy, even for a concept. I wonder how stable that car is at 200mph.

 

Good Lord that is stunning!

 

Ah, I wish I could see it at the concours. . .

 

If you can make it to the Concours, you'll see us!

 

Yes! If this thing performs as good as it looks, it will raise through the ranks fast.

 

This will be the greatest car in terms of performance ever made, in all aspects.

 

Jerod, we need you in Singapore ASAP! i wanna see this beast!!

 

What the **** were they thinking when he designed that car? Maybe it handle well and goes really fast, but the design is absolutly terrible, ahah.

 

You are the first person I've heard that from - you must have unique taste!
