That's faster than a Hayabusa to 60.

I'm sure AMS does it in 1st gear - within their 60' distance. I'd say 1.2 seconds. How bout we ask AMS">>

That car is a nothing more than a kit car with some UNcredible numbers. That engine is so outdated it is not even funny. A carburetor and distributor on a car that is supposed to be able to put down better numbers and performance than the Veyron, haha.

The rear doesn't nearly look as appealing as the front. But 2sec 0-60mph....think I could get over the rear. Besides....only time I would see the rear would be when it's parked.
