The T.50 costs $3M and is only 650 hp. In the world of supercars that is not that much horsepower. The Acura NSX $169,500 prduces 600 hp,

But it is designed by Sir Gordon Murray the famed designer of the Mclaren F1 in the late 1990s. The sound of a naturally aspiraed V-12 can't be beat. And it has manual transmission with 0 to 64 mph in first gear. I didn't even know that was possible.

Murray seems to echo Colin Chapman's design philosophy: "Just add lightness."

Cool car, albeit hardly practical: best for "track days," I suppose.

I wouldn't want to park it in a Wal-Mart parking lot, for example.
