    They initially touted Cici's car as the first production car at Goodwood, which was then walked back as "pre-production" and she never took delivery. That was four years ago now. Hopefully the Roush production of 004 starts soon.

    Ok did not know Muldoon never took delivery of her car.
    maybe a 004 Evo better after 5 years (2020) of silence (no delivery)
    Deliveries starting in Q1 2025? But seen no cars!

    It’s amazing how quick designs can start to look a bit dated when compared to new cars coming out the last couple of years. I think using race carish designs accelerates this process as well as things change so quickly in that world.


    Not an easy game building new cars/ brands.

    I'm surprised Dan Snyder didn't buy it/one, he buys the one-offs of everything.

    To quote Elon: "Rockets are Hard"


    So are supercars.


    It's an immense challenge. I hope he succeeds, and admire that he's trying hard. It's impossible (for me at least) not to respect the relentless pursuit of what is close to an impossible endeavor.

    Its the same car- of note they initially announced this as the first customer car which was then backtracked to just a prototype. Gigi was there for the unveiling, drove it, and seemly quickly distanced herself from the company.

    I believe they disassembled and reassembled the gold car. There is a red CS prototype that they have not posted in months- beyond those two I haven't seen pictures of additional cars.

    Supercars or hypercars these days are a dime a dozen. The only one which is really differentiated is the GMD stuff, and that works because he has a cult following and the engineering chops to be able to charge 4 mill a pop, hes alo building road cars not race cars for the road and crucially they have a unique powerplant/v12 . Then you have Pagani who makes beautiful road cars.

    The race car for the road is always going to be a small market and the styling will always be an issue and soon superseded by whatever is next on track, plus you need a special powerplant to really pull it off, and eys produce and deliver cars more or elss on time. The car Glickenhaus made that I thought was truly special and could sell well is the boot. Other than the original lambo 002 thing there is nothing remotely like it, and in the flesh its awesome, plus we live in a suv world.

    In any event we have to admire the pursuit if passion, and sadly you make a small fortune in this pursuit by starting with a large one.
