Am I the only that finds it interesting that they decided to mount the engine east-west? and that the intercoolers are so small and in a less than ideal location?
Oh do I wish I had the $$ to design and build my own supercar . . .

I expect perfection  but seriously, its pretty funny, because if I had the right financing, I believe I could assemble a fantastic team of nothing but friends and associates to build one of the most amazing supercars ever. The only exception would be for a designer; I would want Henrik Fisker, or one of his guys to do the styling  hmm, we might have to farm out some of the composites work too, but i know a couple really good places for that stuff anyway, lol. It's all about the money, isn't it?

So you want a DB9 clone then? It might be difficult for him to put a DB9 skin on amid engine car...but who knows?

Doesn't have to be a DB9 clone, it just has to look as good as the DB9 does 
btw, you would be drafted for the brake team, just so you know

Well, I thought about picking Ben instead, but I don't think we could take the PR hit from that Vanquish pic floating around . . .

Ok, but only if you promise that it won't inexplicably explode and burn up unsuspecting gators . . .
btw, on a serious note, sorry to hear about your focus; I hope you catch the guys and shatter thier kneecaps.

I'd head up the brilliance team but I wouldn't want to make everyone else jealous of my vast intellect... therefore I will head up the humility team.
