Anyone else think this sounds slightly suspicious - 1739kgs with 473hp
= 271bhp/ton

Even modest BEC's have over 300 bhp/ton and post 4 ish seconds to 60?

Yes they do, and er no they don't, not in the real world It's all about putting the power down effectively, and sevens don't do it as good as a computer.

A point well made by Wadders

Traction is the hardest thing to get right and the 'old skool' approach to traction on a Seven doesn't match the advanced computer techniques.

It looks impressive for £60k - lets hope it depreciates like a stone and in 2012 I can have one

Awesome performance, but can only agree on the looks. I whish they hadn't used the same styling of the headlights as on the ultimate hairdressers car, 350Z.
