If it follows normal US practice, it needs to accommodate a 40 gazillion litre V8!

Now that is a jaw dropper and can't believe it's 12 years old. So loud to no wonder people just stopped and stared.

Couldn't stomach her voice and presenting style even though i love the Kiwi accent, far better with the sound off but then the price to pay is not hearing the engine, worth the trade off, I had to skip through but even then all she ever said was OMG like an overexcited teenager.

 

Liked the use of the turn right lane to turn left without indicators, the passenger said it didnt have any.

 

But yes, a jaw dropper!

Good in depth video online by The Fast Lane Car guys explaining why it has a square steering wheel (remember the Austin Allegro) 6.2V8 pushing out 595bhp with 0-60mph in under 3 seconds and only $75,000.

Car he arrives in, then the featured car.

Sorted that for you.

he changed kiwi to aussie in his quote of JR's post

He didn't really fix it, I was hoping that he had editted out her commentary so I could  admire the looks of her and the car but just the noise of the car.

 

Even just bleeping out the hysterical OMG's would have been a great improvement.

I would pick the M5 also more power and less weight means more fun unless practicality is more important.
