Either they just engineered for the outer, faster moving segment of rotor, or they made the rotor as big as possible just for looks....

You always have to suspect with 'concepts' that they did the styling but skipped the engineering.

Funny, I don't think we have any of those Lambos in town here. I did see an older one on I-70 once....

Nowadays I live in the slum of a very nice neighborhood, I see a lot of nice cars. Saw a Ferrari in a puke tan...

The new generation supercars are so different. I'm not sure you'd call them good looking.

The McLaren P1:



The Lambo Veneno:



The LaFerrari:



Interestingly the McLaren and Ferrari are hybrids, you can tell earth mothers you drive a hybrid

I think I found a Rolls I can afford:

Test...

Seems to have worked. Maybe the site I was using didn't want to let me use the image.

Koenigsegg One:1



One (HP):1 (kg), or around 1,250 of each.

So many cars, so little money. Sigh.. (gets back into the Mercury and drives off sad).

Agree that the supercars are going WAY OTT.

Now if that Rolls was available, one could part it out for quick and pleasant profit I expect....

Speaking of OTT, I found a listing for this:



Suprisingly affordable! Only $2,000,000 factory new!

Here's a link if you're interested. Not affiliated.....

Probably belongs in the 'New Guilded Age' thread....
