The roads of the average Southern California commute would probably eat that car's front lip alive. :o)

Wow, awesome. The color makes up for high-mounted drivers having trouble seeing low cars.
 
But it wouldn't clear any of the speed bumps around my office, even my car scrapes them at 2mph if I don't take them at an angle.

I look at this ultimate tuner fantasy, and then the Oregon roads I now drive, and imagine how quickly this "car":
1. would be stripped if parked anywhere,
2. would overheat as it crawls in 20 mph traffic
3. would prove utterly useless anywhere except on a race track.
 
S. California would prove little different., though at least there are several race tracks this "car" belongs on.
 
Yet this is the car Auto journalists and Enthusiasts lust for as a "daily driver".
Whatever turns you on.

That thing would be sweet on the silky smooth roads in Texas. I'd particuarly enjoy driving through the Pineywoods. I could pass on the $1.9 mil pricetag, though.

If I drove this around on the streets, peoples' first reaction would probably be "Wow, he must be pretty poor, can't even afford a trailer to take his racer to the track!" lol
 
This one is a bit extreme for the streets, probably wouldn't even make it out of my driveway without bottoming out.
