Looks like an Ariel Atom with wings, nothing wrong with that.
This is the worst looking SUV I have ever seen.
I need to see what it turns into first.
The have tow-package mirrors but no trailer hitch? How smart is that?
If you’re one half of an, er, ambiguous duo, this is just the supercar for you.
720 hp, 1250 kg.
:|
Man! that is ugly.
Sort of puts paid to the aerodynamic is beautiful argument.
The black and gold color scheme is so 1980’s z28ish
Tramontana, meet TTAC. Mouthful of vomit, meet Tramontana.
It could be mistaken for a wheeled refugee from the set of Battlestar Galactica, but this abomination was recently featured on the show ‘Megaworld’ on the Discovery Channel. For mere millions, you too can buy (or subsidize the promotors of) another whisp of automotive vaporware. It’s even named after the wind…
At film time, it was ‘under development’ and only existed as a one-off prototype that had yet to pop its 40 mph cherry. That’s what, 19 hoursepower per mile per hour?
Keep it. I’m still waiting for my Vector.
I wish I could afford stuff like this.
Top Three:
1. New Best First Date Car Ever?
2. And it gets 67 mpg highway!
3. Wait til you see Clarkson try to fit in it!
Though really: only 720 hp out of a 5.5 L V12??!
What’s wrong?
They added an entire Walmart’s worth of dollar bin add-on parts to a kit racer and forgot to add windshield wipers. So… still not street legal.
The PepBoys speaker covers are particularly classy.
If you’re going enclosed and expensive you might as well get a real car.
An Ariel Atom, Factory 5 Cobra, Caterham 7 or Beck 550 Spyder pisses on this.
And it is not worthy of the black and gold color scheme, either from the Trans-Am or the John Player Special race cars.
What’s wrong is that the quote is “These are not the droids you’re looking for.”
Geez, Robert. I don’t even like Star Wars. :p
So, is this thing an Autobot or a Decepticon?
Automotive cosplay.
Whatever, guys. This is so awesome.
Boy, the Matchbox people are hoping this doesn’t make it to production.
So why do I want this over a Pagani Zonda, which is sexier, classier, and has a passenger seat for my equally sexy significant other to ride with me? (probably screaming her head off as I corner at over 1g)
If I had a single-seat supercar, it’d be much lighter than 1250 kg.
“We count thirty import hatchbacks, Lord Vader, but they’re so small, they’re evading our speed traps!”
“Then we must destroy them car-to-car. Get the crews to their Tramontanas…”
The dials are printed on PVC sheet, cut out and stuck on.

Bet they’re no match for the Rebel’s long-range X-Bow fighters…
RF, don’t you have some aesthetic standards for what goes on your site???!
Man, if I were a kid, I would want a GIGANTIC poster of that car in my room.
It looks like someone pimped out an old John Player Special F1 car.
For some reason those mirrors remind me of Barney Fife in a supposed karate position claiming his hands are deadly weapons.
It’s missing the aircraft carrier landing hook.
Don’t see anything wrong. No entiendo.
Cars coming from other planets are cool for me.
I like it, same with the Airel Atom :)
It’s clearly a car designed by Homer Simpson?

Just what I thought.
The first victim of “Pimp my F1 Ride”
Sheesh…..not one carbon-fiber cupholder?

LOL, only one seat. So hopefully there is a LCD screen in the cockpit with wireless Internet, so you can do it online.
