Default The 8 Million Dollar Exelero

To All:

This is something a bit different, when you have 8 million dollars to spare.

Though some of you might find this interesting. I had never heard of one before. (V12 biturbo, 700 bhp, 4.6 sec. 0-60, 213 WOT, 5900 .lbs)

"They should have just used a V8", and a Turbo.

Enjoy,

Ty O'Neal

Not an attractive car. Looks like a Lincoln Mark IIV on steroids.

Excelero...

Sounds like a good name for a disposable razor

Looks like the retarded son of the bat mobile. Way too heavy.

It's really kind of a letdown, imagining what they could have built. This would be a cool photochop candidate!

I have much love for the F1 and it was king of the hill for a long time, but the Veyron is really something else. If you give an F1 a 100 MPH head start, the Veyron will still get to 200 quicker.

One of the best parts of this I thought was seeing the car that had been built in the late '30's to test the 200 mph tires. Very Cool IMO.

There was a Corgi Toy that came out years ago that looked like this car a bit.

Did you check out the underside of the car and notice the Belly Pans on the underside of the car. That's probably a big reason it can go so fast and stay stable at speed. Right?

That one clip having to do with Dubai was eye opening. Everyone had Exotics in the Garage.

Anyway,

Take Care,

Ty
