For $550-1mil, I'd rather have a car that doesn't look like a kit car, such as a Zonda.

I completely agree.

I think the Pegaso is a Spanish car built between the years of 1881 & 1973.

I'm told that in their later years the bodies tended to seem to melt from the heat and you could come out and find the bodies melting off the side of a table.

Many of the later models had bodies that didn't much resemble a normal car.

OK, where's the tongue in cheek emoticon?

It's Picasso......................................... probably.

Mostly they made truck but in the 1950's for a while they made V-8 powered near-exotica sports cars.

Imagine a Boano Ferrari doodled by an 8th-grader, and insert a Chrysler "letter series" grille, and you'd be close.

They weren't too shabby either. At least they aged better than the Tramontana probably will.

2800 lbs and fugly as hell. 720hp and 680tq and it still only cuts a 3.5 0-60 time?? $550,000-1,000,000?? Who are they kidding? No wonder they only expect to produce 10 a year. They will be lucky to even find 10 buyers.

For that kind of money I'll take an M600, 997 GT3 RS, S2000 CR as a daily driver, and have change left over.
0-60 below 3.5 is more a product of AWD, a 1st gear that can reach 60+, or crazy aggressive launch control.
