By what?

[n1gzd]

did not want to give it away but ok I will. It was a Pagani Huayra. It was a pretty entertaining episode (at least the Huayra and rally racing in Wales in the Fastest Bentley ever). That was impressive. The part about the worlds smallest car was not very interesting. Reasonably priced car was pretty good. Slowest time ever (but with good reason - snow and slush on track).

A dab of brakes as he passes the tires, presumably with his left foot, or the middle one.

MPG? Towing capacity?

[Chrispy]

Watched it last week. As Jeremy said, the car is great but the name is stupid (and unpronounceable by most people).

Fuel consumption: 10 mpg city,14 mpg highway (EPA testing)
Towing capacity: Let me know if you find a place to mount the tow bar.

did not want to give it away but ok I will. It was a Pagani Huayra.

Its ok I knew I was going to hear about at work. When I found out pretty much every episode was on streaming netflix I watched probably 6 seasons over the course of 3 sick days.

you have to ask your self this ?
if i bought a atom and took the 200K i save by not buying the pagani huayra could i make the atom 2 seconds faster a lap ?
as long as you tighten the bolts to your upper comtrol arms you could ! sorry mark did i say that out loud ?

[n1gzd]

I think that you would save a lot more than $200k.

[962porsche]

yes i looked up the price it's a one million dollar car ?
but i still say even for the little old 200K you could make the atom as fast !
then with the deferents of the price of the atom and the 200K INTO IT I WOULD JUST GO BUY THE cheap Zonda .
