Amazing car, I just wish we could've heard more of the induction/exhaust noise and less music/commentary.

Thanks great vid!

Wow looks the part doesn't it and I am so happy the wing is retractable...

LSD?

Very little body roll. Any clues if its airmatic with active suspension or regular coils... ?

Also are brakes carbon ceramic- they are split units but not sure if CC?

Something fishy about the vid. Take a close look at the front rotor and rim when the video reaches 2:07 - 2:11 Is it just me, or is something miss aligned.
