Intersting engine swap, but not real practical. This fits in the " just becasue you can do it, dosnt mean you should" catagory. For about 5k you can put a supercharger with a inner cooler on a 4.6 v8 and get 450 to 500 hp. For around 80k I would look for a more valuable , colectable, Shelby GT 500, with 500 hp. Just my opinion.

Surely you jest...

From what I can see in the pics, the interior looks 'pieced" together.

I do not jest. If I had 80k+ to drop on a ridiculous car, I would take this purely for the awesome factor that comes with having an Aston Marin V12 in it. Plus I like that interior. It's not conventional but I don't think it looks pieced together or anything, rather it looks pretty clean, bright blue aside. I really dig this machine. But those wheels would definitely have to go lol.

Sure I could have a faster one, but there's always going to be faster ones. This ones weird and interesting, and I remember reading the build online as it was being created.

I'll agree that its probably not for everyone, but hey, I'm also the guy with a Mustang II

Also I don't think I'd ever want to own a Super Snake regardless. So I guess I'm a bit biased lol

I loved this car from the time I saw it a few years ago. Such a great concept. I would definitely take this over a supersnake. It looks awesome on the outside but once you pop the hood thats just amazing. Love the color too.

I think the interior looks odd because the bottom half is stock, then the upper portion is all blue and digital. That's why it looks pieced together. Not saying the car is awful, but for that money a Super Snake is more for me.
