Anymore, to be supercar worthy, you have be able to top the 200 mph mark. 190 mph just doesn't impress with the company of the Ford GT, the Carrera GT, the Enzo, the SLR, and the Murcielago.

Also the F430 doesn't do 200+mph b/c it's geared for acceleration. To me top speed is not that big a deal. Also 190mph ain't bad.
If it does come in with 500hp and 3000-lbs it'll be one of the few cars that does. The 500-hp M6 will weigh 3600-lbs (est).
Me thinks it'll be heavier than 3000-lbs they always are...
