What is this I don't even...

There was a time that a manual would perform better than an auto 'box. That was in the slushbox era. With doubleclutch gearboxes (and more exotic solutions like the automated manual gearbox of the Aventador, the automated sequential gearbox of the LFA and the Agera, which has two clutches but operates in a very…

There are poorer backdrops, for a car like this, than the volcanic island Lanzarote, of the Canary Islands.

At 280 HP for 1400 lbs it will probably beat the Ariel Atom. The 1350 lbs 245 HP one.
