There was indeed a street version, with wire wheels, although there were very few of them build (7, I think.)

I don't find the newest car particularly interesting, either aesthetically or technically, and I certainly wouldn't throw a half million dollars at it.

I concur, of course this car is badazz but the styling... well, it just looks like any of the other dozens of super cars.

And for $500K I could pick up two or three really nice cars and put some money in the bank.

Add me to those who love Leno, nice to see one of the good guys living the dream, anyone else watching Jay Leno's garage?
