Amusingly enough my first reaction was "wow look at how meaty those tires are"

Ill always have a soft spot in my heart for these little beasts but 780!? Good lord. This car cannot be drivable.

Frankly, that hood scoop / intake / ram jet just ruins the classic lines of the Cobra. No doubt the performance is insane, but I still say FAIL.

Yup. Skinnies up front and giant slicks out the back. It's lost any semblance of the original. Instead of a 12.9, try a 6.4 with a turbo up front, and we're talking.
