Seeing that Verde is italian for green it makes sense lol. I'm guessing that is the only color it comes in hence the name.

It's also Spanish for green, but we know the Mexicans didn't make that shit, lol.

Looks fantastic... but at first glance I thought, "This is based on a Factory Five GTM chassis..." Then click on their website and you see a whole story about how they created a GTM-R etc. So yeah... it's a Factory Five kit car, but with a much better looking body.

If you're over 6' don't even consider owning one... you can't fit. And the real test will be the interior... does it look like a crap kit car like the Noble's and the GTMs do, or will it get an OEM finished interior?

I think it is more of a 100 mpg or 400 hp car. Do you wanna use hybrid to maintain speed or use 400hp to accelerate lol

I think it's more or less EPA rating tricks becuase of the Hybrid... just like Chevy can claim the Volt is a 230mpg car.

Truth. I read more about it and it seems the way they claim these ridiculous figures is... well ridiculous. It's a very inaccurate way of measuring fuel efficiency.


Anyone else have trouble believing that 400hp in this vehicle would send it over 200mph?

No... a C5 Z06 makes 405 crank HP and weights 3100lbs and can do near 190 with a revised rear end gear so it can pull 6th gear. Or people put G-force gearing in the trans w/ revised 5th and 6th ratios to pull. Stock the car will hit 172 at redline in 5th.

This car is probably 600lbs lighter maybe more.
