Almost looks like a Transformer. Is the umbrella a dealer option?

I have to say that I kinda like it. I like the idea of a McLaren F1-like central driver's seat. But the price is a bit mad...

I think it's awesome.

I have reservations of course. For all the world, it tries so hard to look like a mid-engined car, yet is based on a 964 (C2). This is unsettling, it fails on it's promise or mechanical premise.

I would like to have a car with this seating arangement or at least try one out for a while. Three seats like a McLaren, cool.

I don't like it.

I do wonder about that car labelled 928 in the background...

Interesting. I wonder how they came up with this:

0-60 in 4.5 seconds, 1/4 mile in 12.8 seconds.

That's about a second faster than a stock 964.
