is it my eyes or does the front lid look photoshopped? shadows look odd.

i've had a couple of beers so may be my eyeballs  :D

Its a '92 Vector W8. Only 14 made before it was superceded by the WX-3 - a lesser looker IMO. F40 is nice but it doesnt have that "oh my god, WHAT is that" feeling to it - everyone knows its an F as it looks like one.

Supercars just have that something you cant explain - that...deep seated urge to have one that makes no sense. Usually they're a bitch to drive, looks are questionable and they cost stupid amounts, but you'd almost die for one lol
