Cool idea, but I find it farfetched that they would spend millions developing the 918 only to turn around and create another clean-sheet hypercar. A 918 derivative would be much more believable.

The 918 was developed by the old owners as in before the take over. Quite common for new management to change the names of somethings or compleatly toss old ideas in favor of their new better ideas.

Hmmm, wouldn't the 918 smoke any Ferrari now?

The F70 should be out around the same time as the 918 from what I've read. They will be very close performance and technology wise. |
