yeah, i know...i was surprised. i have read reviews about this thing. and they raced it against a hayabusa 1300 and it was kicking the motorcycles butt because it is soo much easier to launch and control. The best 1/4 time I have seen for it is 9.0 sec flat....very impressive. They have amazing grip also.

They are making one with a 5.0 liter mustang engine also. They looked at all kinds of motors and decided on the old 5.0 mustang engine because it is very very light for it's displacement. The prototype they have is around 1500 lbs at 450 HP!! N/A 5.0 liter engine!! Sounds like rolling death to me..hehehe.

If you've ever seen a lotus 7 in the flesh, you wouldn't want one. It is the smallest car you have ever seen. If you hit something, they might find enough to bury.

HOWDY HO!!!!! I have the 2nd Megabusa (screaming yellow)in the country to be arriving in my hands within about 3-4 weeks. It will be left hand drive, limited slip, sequential 6 speed, Yoko A032 road race tires, heating, roof, sidecurtain doors, windscreen, etc..... all for the completely built price of about $34k.

You can buy these from me too......If you want a brochure feel free to email me directly.

The megabusa does not do a sub 10second

0-100-0 in 13.XX with a horrible reaction time, and a velocity of 102.5 since it "was charging sooo quickly".

Scot - BUY ONE OF THESE FROM ME PLEASE.
