There's no denying the attention to detail, the highest-of-the-high-quality parts, and the performance. But it's an ultrabaked kit car. And, to my aesthetic, it's one of the ugliest. The snobbery involved in making them only makes them uglier -- and that I deal with holier-than-thou artsy fashion types every day and am saying this should speak volumes about my attitude toward Horatio and his cars. (At least Brunello Cucinelli, for instance, is a nice guy. Horacio's been an elitist ass in every place and situation I've seen him in).
YMMV. If I were gifted one of these, I'd sell it immediately.

Are you kidding? A Zonda R went around the 'ring faster than a P1, 918, or La Ferrari. And a Huayra holds the Top Gear lap record.
