Super exclusive car: The Vulca S

[CtrlAltDefeat]

I just stumbled upon this site (http://blog.wired.com/cars/2009/03/fm-keeps-it-exc.html) showing this super exclusive hand made car of which only 10 are supposed to be made... no word on how much it costs but I'm sure its super expensive with a 630hp 5.8l V10 and full leather interior. Altho with the front grille, I couldn't help a little 'shop :biggrin: I must say, however, the interior is ugly, but it does come with a carbon fiber option which I think would look better... what do you guys think?

hell yeah

[jinxor]

ill take the carbon interior... :P
dont like the rear body and the panel over the rear wheels... looks like a massive fender

I betcha no one complains about the center speedo!

lol yea I noticed that too... :biggrin:

Seeing as it's hand made and the person it's being made for will be there while they do it, I'm sure they would make it a traditional dash layout if you wanted... I'd have them round off the bottom point of the front grille if they would... I don't mind it looking like a face but the smiley face looks goofy...

They get an A+++ for effort, but i mean look at it. It looks as if a ricer tried to make a luxury sports car. And then tried to mash european styling into it. Look at the speakers and grilles, look at how the padding covers everything, look at the light controls, look at the vents, look at the data logging dash. I think the "Oh Hai" sums it up pretty much. I don't even think i want to know what the price on this would be when you can probably buy a Superlegerra for cheaper :-/

Thats the first thing I noticed.

It looks all sorts of messed up inside, but I really do like the exterior..

[marcus]

looks like an rx8..reminds me of a DB9

[CtrlAltDefeat]

look at how the padding covers everything, Yea, it does look like they lined the interior with a sleeping bag :laugh:

According to this site (http://www.motorauthority.com/faralli-mazzanti-vulca-v12-headed-for-production.html):

Pricing will range from about €280,000 for the 6.0L model and top out at more than €340,000 for the top-end cars. Other options include 19in or 21in forged alloy wheels wrapped with 285mm rubber, and a leather or Alcantara lined interior with carbon-fiber trim.
that's $376,376.00 to $457.028.00 US

Cool ride

The front end reminds me of the Orochi (look it up) and the interior is too bland.

[frownonfun]

well if i had a few paid off yarii to trade i could cover TT&L.

That just might be the ugliest interior of any car in the world. Outside doesn't look bad though.

You guys are nuts. This is the coolest thing I've ever seen. Its like a Lotus, a Maserati and a 50's era Jag had a baby... then the interior was outfitted by Gucci.

I'd drive that thing all damn day long. You'd have to tear me out of it. One of the cooler niche cars I've seen in a long time.

Gucci makes purses, not cars. Not only is it ugly, it is one of the cheapest looking leather jobs I've seen. The clazzio seat covers have better fitment. Follow the center armrest to the drivers footrest - nothing but waves and ripples :thumbdown:

[ChinoCharles]

it is one of the cheapest looking leather jobs I've seenPass that pipe over here man. I mean, I see some ripples, but it is obviously meant to be a plush interior. Ripples come with the territory, and they did a nice job in minimizing it. Is it perfect? Not quite, but it DEFINITELY isn't "one of the cheapest jobs I've ever seen." That is just silly talk.

[supmet]

Pass that pipe over here man.

I would, but I think I'll need it again before it makes it to ohio and back :P

I guess if wrinkled is your thing. Still for half a mil, my interior, WILL be perfect. I'd be staying in their "tuscan villa" as long as it took for them to get it perfect. If you took your yaris down to any shop, you could get a better looking interior for less than 10 grand.

All that and they won't say who their engine is from, and to me, building a 600 hp engine that lasts is a little tougher than smoothing out leather.

[wiirenet]

Wow, that has to be one of sexiest cars I've seen... minus the interior! I think if the interior was jet black and without the random wood/red accents it would be perfect though. Also the steering wheel is fugly. But the outside rocks IMO. Love the lights & bumper.

[SMALLNUMBERS]

FAIL. this car looks terrible. the lines are NOT working... The interior is hilarious...

just looks like an obvious cheap attempted at fusing 3 luxury cars together.

[crankyelbow]

I love it :)

The interior is more "custom car" than "exotic luxory". The whole car is really!

Its pretty dam sweet, and Im sure it has the performance to back it up :cool:

[Zefoxe]

the interior looks like it was made with an oven mitt o.O

[SilverBack]

I like how the grill seems to protrude just a little like the current Aston Martins. Those foglights and bumps on the corners of the hood are nice and subtle.

The sides look overdone, especially on the door panel and the rear fender (too retro, like a 60's Cobra). On the other hand the door without a complete window frame is interesting. The side rear window flares up too sharply. Nice rims though

The rear end is way too rounded off much like the VW Beetle. It doesn't compliment the aggressive front end. That should be re-done completely.

The interior isn't too bad. The center display hood looks visually obstructive and needs to come down a few inches, and the colors are too bright. Anything brown or darker would look much better, and red parts would look better in silver too.

if you were going to drop 300K Pounds on a car i would get something sexy like this and well worth it with the Merc engine.

Looks like it has a HUD too, unless that is one big air vent
