"Powering the beast is a 4.4-liter V8 borrowed from a Volvo XC90 SUV that's been force-fed by a turbocharger and routes its 600 horses through a six-speed manual transmission to the rear wheels."

Wow, looks like a classic Aston Martin or Ferrari. That is definitely sweet. Looks ready for a James Bond movie.

I never knew "volvo" and "sexiness" could be used in the same sentence... I like it except I hate the look of slammed vintage/vintage styled cars, especially with gigantic wheels/lo-pro tires.

I wonder how much of that will tranfer into production models. Pillars seem to be too skinny and bumpers doesn't look like crash test worth.
