Luckily this car comes in two other colours, blue and white. The colour of this particular car is it's only downfall.
I had the pleasure of driving this 224kW turbo charged beast yesterday and whilst I didn't get to really 'drive' it what I experienced was awesome.
Firstly there is no key required to start the car, you simply get into the car, with it's awesome racing seats, pop the keys on the passenger seat or centre console, put your foot on the clutch and press the start button. From there it is pure sports driving excellence. The 2.5lt, 5 cylinder engine has plenty of go! The little car struggles to hold when you put your foot down (not even all the way) and the braking is exceptional. The voice activation functionality was very cool too!
Whilst there were only 315 of these little beauties brought into Australia, that combined with the $60K price tag I probably won't be owning one soon.
Enjoy!
