It's disappointing in some respects that they've gone for the ecoboost V6 over a hybrid drive like so many of the exotics are these days. However, I doubt this will be anywhere near the cost of the LaFerrari/918/P1. I also realise they very much intend to take it racing and that the ecoboost engine meets the regulations.

The flying butress isn't new, but certainly more dramatic than the only other 'mainstream' car I can think of with one, the F599.

There's no similiarity, not even at a stretch
