To all those who are confused about my comment...
The TVR Sagaris can do 198mph with only 400hp.
BTW, tHE fact that somebody posted the top speed of a Z06 with that much hp only supports my comment.

Whats all this BS about top speed? how many people posting on this thread have been anywhere near 200 mph? Even worse, who's got the skills to need a 200+ mph top speed? So let's stick to your opinions on the car itself, huh?

edit:
as far as the tvr sagirs this page (http://www.tvr-eng.co.uk/)says 400HP and 195mph @2500lbs. I am sure gearing is most important for running that high. the carrera GT has 620hP and only does 205, what's wrong with it?? Maybe, just maybe they decided ~200 is fast enough and their is no reason to gear it to run faster....maybe.

Have you seen the 0-60 on the TVR?
Come back when you do.

Looks good except for the side-profile. The front is too low compared to the rear. What's the price?
