    Are they better than michelin pilots as i was under the impression they are the best tyre..? Would love one of these as well or even a shot of one... but the price is unjustifiable. If these were around the 30k mark I would consider one with all the extras but 53k... wow.

    "Its a cool thing"

    It is, if a little expensive!

    Would I like one, yes, but I think for that money I'd go for a 4C

    The Eagle F1's (Asym 2's) are one of the best summer tyres I've used. Fantastic wet and dry grip. It's a jack of all trades without being a dedicated track tyre.

    You can see reviews here: http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre/Goodyear/Eagle-F1-Asymmetric-2.htm

    The Biposto is pretty expensive there is no doubt, ha ha. The 0-62mph of 5.9s (and 997kg weight) is actually the base 33k model, so the 53k model will probably be slightly faster with it's lightened bonnet, windows and seats etc etc.

    Don't forget that amazing gearbox fitted to the 53k one as well Porthos!!!  :thumb: the base 33k doesn't include that either I believe.

    Indeed, it's £8,500 the Gearbox, light-weight flywheel with racing clutch with some carbon trims inside.

    Quite nice being able to select the parts you want, the base model with the gearbox comes in at 41k if you want.

    It's a cool car but aimed at the seriously rich!
    If I had 33k for a car it would be going on the new civic type r and the change used on trackdays :)

    If i had the cash, id prob have the cash for other stuff as well so i would deffinetly have the biposto to go with my other fancy cars.I doubt any body woud have this on its own.They would have other expensive cars in their  garage.I love it.

    i do love the biposto but you could build yourself a custom car that is quicker better handling and rarer for a fraction of the cost, incredibly cool car but i'd much prefer to do it myself. Technically speaking the gearbox is the only thing that stands out to me.

    I agree with this tbh. The car looks good but what really appeals to me is the gearbox and maybe even the digital screen. I would love to find out who ends up buying these at this sort of price.
