    what price does chrysler need to charge for the 4-12 to make an attractive alternative to the superexotics.... if it comes out at all....850hp and 2800lbs are the goals...it would be the fastest road car if they can manage to achieve this... but we shall see...btw, i saw the prototype at montrey... my cousin commented that he though it looked like what the nest generation nsx would look like and a multi- hundred thousand dollar car!!!!

    2x words. Ugly Chrysler.

    I'd rather have a nice Lotus Elise then drive around in that tub.

    I love the specs.

    Blah for the styling.

    F*ckin ZERO for creativity! "New concept car, let's take a Zonda (AMG-mercedes engine, what a coincidence), make it look weird, and stick turbos on it!". This last reason is a very personal one, but makes me say I just won't admire that car.

    As for price ... I see it between 300k$ and half a million msrp. It may be what it is (some low grade mutt to my eyes), it will perform ridiculously (if they maintain the specs), and will be priced accordingly, while keeping a "reasonable" price tag, being a Chrysler. The Zonda is 400k euros, the ME4-12 is a cheapened Zonda (less cf, turbos), so it does match, IMO.

    I think 6.0se might have more info on it ... at one time he was looking forward to ordering one (at least putting a deposit down) ...

    if it comes out, it would blow everything out of the water by a significant margin including the enzo and cgt. the stats are just ridiculous.

    I heard $250,000 but I just don't see them being able to make profit at that price, i think they could easily ask between the msrp of the cgt and enzo, after all, it WILL kill them in performance, and i think buyers would be more than happy to buy one at 500,000

    i think it looks great, the interior is very cool

    enjoy http://supercarfreak.net/gallery/album498

    I've heard that Horacio Pagani designed the ME4-12

    I heard the same thing... frankly I think it looks crazy and given the obscene performance numbers they're quoting would love to have one.

    I sort of like it, Ive always wondered whichh supercar a Pharoah would drive & now I know. Art Deco was after all based on the architecture of Ancient Egypt. So the Empire State Bldg & Chrysler Bldg are also Retro Egyptian Bldgs :)
