    Leave it to the French to design something like this.

    So typical.

    Like that'll ever catch on!

    Imagine going bumper to bumper traffic with the cars of its time period? I'd hate to the one who gets tailgated by this car.

    In the old days, the rich didn't care about pedestrian safety.

    I was hoping there was a narrow gauge metal screen at the front...

    but to no avail.

    And it seems like it's a torqueless wonder too. Watch it fly up those hills!

    If you enjoyed Koyaaniqatsi or Baraka, there's a good chance you'll enjoy this movie, The Fall. It's a story told with visuals comparable to the aforementioned movies and an absolutely incredible debut performance by the little girl in the lead acting role. I can't recommend this movie highly enough.

    until corners and braking are involved, very fast in the straights but a bit of a disappointment when you look at the overall performance. Given a similar hp to weight ratio the car will always own a bike

    Ergh, I could have ridden the lap that rider did. That's only a 600 as well, it shouldn't have beaten the Atom off the line. Also, fully loaded S1000RR: $26k and 1000hp/ton. Supercharged Atom: Probably close to $100k and only 600hp/ton.
