And it definitely isn't GRM.

Look at the video on my son's blog spot for September 10

All the mesh vents are apparently exits for aero. Now if they can only find a driver stupid enough to drive it upside down

"... this thing looks like a boil on the butt of a baboon."

I love the similes and metaphors used by British journalists.

It's ugly in an 'aero kit on an RX8' way but I'll forgive ugly for performance, which it seems to be loaded with!

^^Agreed. Honestly it's ugly like a purpose built race car (and let's face it, there are some ugly ones), but it is absolutely beautiful in a function over form kind of way

"I'll drive it" as in I WILL drive it or "I'd drive it" as in I would like to drive it? I was just checking your financial status and whether you needed to be on GRM

I think he meant he'd be 'stupid enough' to drive it 190mph upside down in a tunnell

Oh, then he's definitely in the wrong forum. He needs to be in the Phsyciatric Help forum.

Sometimes it does feel like the Phsyciatric Help forum although I can't see that many people get all that much help with their mental health.

Apparently I have very little concept of aesthetics, because I think it looks great! So mean, so purposeful... The only criticism I really agree about is that "Gumpert" sounds a little bit more like the name for a small economy hatchback, but what is in a name anyways?

Suppose I drive the thing upside down for them.... Can I have one?
