    Iconic Motors GTR Roadster

    iconicmotors

    Sounds..........erm........kinda interesting. Their defining features for the car are its fuel filler cap, gear stick and door hinges!

    Opinions please.

    yeah that is pretty awesome but does it have an automatic/handsfree/fully automated fuel filler cap?

    that cap filler system is made from a 80lb block of aluminium, seems like a waste of material.

    Brave step to call your new company ICONIC motors

    Nice hype, but where's the truth ...
    + 200+mph in an open top car with no aero controls - yeah right .. .the buffeting from the windscreen will throw the car from side to side !!
    + All that expensive "technology" that actually has NEGATIVE impact on performance Complex fuel filler which could be a plastic cap weighing a few ounces ??
    + where's the details of the chassis and suspension ? No decent images. That front chassis can't be THAT rigid given the lengths of the front chassis members !!

    800bhp, 1 metric ton. I think they have power to weight covered. maybe they are trying to weigh it down?
    Plus, if people are paying megabucks for yet another mega horsepower Cobra styled vehicle you've got to have some unique gadgets onboard.
    Horsepower wins races. Torque pulls trailers.
