All I can say is, the car is unreal. I can't convey to those who haven't seen the car yet how awesome it is. I'm going to tell you a lot of you people are going to hate me when I tell you that I sat in the car, STARTED IT (!!!!) and revved the engine! I could feel the torque and hear the engine roar.

I have an insane amount of pictures to go through, I just got home. I do have a video clip with audio of the engine revving. I talked extensively with the Engineering Manager of the styling group who designed the inside and outside of the car. I played completely with the Information Menu, including the MYCOLOR feature and I have tons of pictures to show you how the menu works which nobody here has seen before.

I have the full story on the front valences, and special editions. Yes Dan just for you, the first special edition will be "comming out in March". I have more to say about it later. I might be able to tell you how much horsepower the car really has, not what they are advertising.

I have so much stuff to say. I'm going to eat, download the pics and video off my camera and write a huge review filled with 1600X1200 pics. Maybe around 10pm EST I'll have some stuff up and I'll be able to answer questions.

I got dragged out to eat and just got back. Away I go. I just listened to the video I took and it sounds awesome and is 640X480. Can anyone give me a link to a freebie avi to .mpg compressor? One I can use to cut parts of a movie out would be better. There's 10 seconds of useless video (didn't want to miss the startup). The rest is 20 seconds of revving with the microphone 2 feet away from the exhaust pipe.

I'm not going to post this in pieces. Give me till 11 pm EST and I promosie it will be done. I need to do a lot of photo cropping and resizing.

Here's the video. BTW the car does have a starter clutch safety. The guy that started it didn't have the clutch pushed in at first and couldn't figure out why it didn't turn on. Good thing for the safety because 2 really hot 17 year olds would have been creamed.

Right click and select save as and download.

Mirror 1
Mirror 2 (Thanks Grantsdale)

Someone please host this on your site so we can have mirrors going so my ISP doesn't shut me down over a 5.6 meg file
