I should probably have mentioned that you need to skip to about half way before you see the head to head... :coat:

on the one hand you have one of the worlds finest most advancely engineered cars and on the other hand a spazzed up TVR where the only resident design know-how is the phrase "brute force"

Looks like Brute Force is the way forwards it made the 918 look a bit silly, no wheelspin no nothing just gone!! Whats brute force about that?

The K is a work of art IMO and every bit as special as the 918 Spyder. The vid doesn't lie. What the point of new tech if old tech destroys it? Bit blinkered IMO. I'd love to have a K :thumb:

Have you driven one and had a good poke around inside and underneath one ?
Maybe they've come on a bit but the one i spent a day with was a complete piece of s***.
Probably fine if numbers are all that matters to you but personally, since working on cars, whats underneath and how things are done matters hugely to me.
The Zonda we had out on the same day made it look like a student project car.
