A car that you can race at Le Mans and win, then drive it home and park it in your garage???? Insanity! Lol!

Wow what a concept! Gotta love Astons vision for the future. They were a company that I had doubts would survive, but seem to just be getting better and better.

Hardly practical. Over GBP 2m price tag plus. No reverse gear.

LOL; reverse is handled by the electric motor. I hardly think they're going for "practical"; that duty is to be handled by your partner's MDX.

Well actually they are. Adrian Newey made it very clear this is a car u can drive to the store without needing to go all hyper. Missing that is to completely miss the point about this car.

GBP 2m + is hardly practical. Semantics. I'm sure they will be very valuable and be real collectors items
