When I initially read the stats, I was pumped to see 737bhp! That's a massive number!

...then I kept reading...

916bhp!!!

Even uglier than the 12C. It's a good thing you won't see it very long.

Agreed, Gordon Murray must wonder how he got stuck designing silly city cars.

I can only imagine driving this thing.

Geez, with that kind of torque and only rwd, first gear must go to like 90-100 mph!!! ZO6 goes to 60 mph with "only" 500 ft/lbs and weighs about the same. On most tracks, you'll probably just be sitting around in 2nd gear which will be good for 60-140 mph. LOL

It has the potential to be the first production car under 7 minutes on the Nurburgring. Cant wait to see the run.

For the price of the P1, you could have a couple of each...
