It's all vaporware at this point regardless. If you read the article, the KERS part of it doesn't even exist yet. Frankly, I don't understand why they just don't enlarge the snails slightly. No reason it couldn't produce 500hp with minimal lag with nothing more than a turbo swap. Guess it's easier to pass emissions while adding 100hp at the same time.

they are hiking way too far up-market, again that's why the Q60RS is doing poorly,
53k base for an RS opens up the germans for those who want refinement and speed, opens up the Vette who just want pure speed, the dated 7AT as the only option is only doing harm, could have at least thrown a 6MT in there as an alternative.
