Italian Supercharged friend for L

Since owning my Lightning, supercharged vehicles really get my attention.
I think this thing is frigg'n sweet!




"Alfa-Romeo 8C Competizione concept... The thing's really intriguing since it claims to take people sitting in it to 60 mph from a stop in just under 4.5 seconds using a supercharged version of the 4.2-liter V8 engineered by Ferrari. 400 wild horses and 330 pound-feet of torque chugging through the rear wheels..."

I got the pics and info here .

I want those tires

I don't see much difference of that power with the 03 cobras.

cobras have more torque to boot.

thats one fine looking vehicle, and yeah the cobra might be a little higher in the numbers, but take it to 200 mph and see which one lives

In anycase, if you like supercharged cars may i introduce:



Its my favorite supercar, its 655 hp and its top speed is faster than the mclaren f1, runs the quarter in 10 and does 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in under 3.5 seconds. And is skid pad tested for 1.3 g's. Now thats an effin car.

Edit: oh, its a Konigsegg. Swedes made it i think.
