little disappointing. for double the price..i figure they would at least have the power match the zr1. Seems like your paying double for all the carbon fiber pieces.

Seems like you're paying for exclusivity, and thats about it.

im sure they can tune to GTr and make it higher than 520hp with less the cost of 150k

your paying for the prestige. like a lambo imho. lambos are POS if you take into account the amount of money you pay for how much performance you get in return. the regular GTR is a highly capable competitor of murcielagos for what.... 1/5 of the price?

Huge waste of money. Save your pennys and buy a regular model and add a few mods. Lets hope the tranny holds up this time around.
