    Ow my god! Have seen photo's with broken rims, but this is the worst I've ever seen! How is it possible to cut all sides of this wheel completely through?! And actually very little damage besides the cuts... No big scratches or something else (on the rims). Strange..

    Can't believe he didn't stop. Probably added another 20k in parts because he didn't. What a shame. Goes to show that for 99.9% of us, putting the car in "race" mode isn't a good thing, we don't have the skill to drive one of these quickly without the electronic assistance.

    It does doesn't it, it makes the 200k list price seem like a bargain.

    I guess so! but then again... even if you built a 308 part by part, it would cost 38 million dollars. Altho, you could probably get it down to maybe 35 million if you bought half the parts used!
