Preparing Mantide for the Photo Shoot

[MORCOPOLO0817]

ugly ass front engine car. And this guy Jason comes off as a pretentious, self loving egotist! With that phony motorist era hat of his!

[McJerkins]

@MORCOPOLO0817 They only speak for like 20s throughout the whole video. Quit being a dickhead.

[eatmemayne]

It looks like the Bat Mobile's retarded cousin...

[WielderOfTheSteel]

Someone PLEASE fire the designer!

[Janusha]

@WielderOfTheSteel

Its Jason Castrota who is now a god among men in america after having worked for Pininfarina and learnt how to design supercars. This car is just a redressed Corvette. Ugly as hell and they want twice the Corvette price for it. It never became anything obviously. Its just a bodyshell on a Corvette. Nothing spectacular.

[cabbagesftw]

@Janusha Actually its like 20x the corvette price, 2 million.

[Janusha]

@cabbagesftw

Its funny to me... How americans always complain how expensive European supercars are. But when they make their own, they just restyle an old Corvette and ask 20 times the price for it. Or how about the Hennessey Venom GT kit-car with a Corvette engine for 1,2 million. Or the ridiculous SSC Aero that costs 650 000 dollars. No wonder they never manage to actually sell any of these things.

[cabbagesftw]

@Janusha I think those cars are so expensive because they have over 1200 hp, and I'm sure all of the parts of the car need to be top of the line to handle it. Isn't the mantide italian though?

[Janusha]

@cabbagesftw

They use old Corvette engines. Not because they are best in the woooorld but exactly because they are cheap and available and there are already exsisting parts out there to put them at any state of tune. Again because its CHEAP. So how do they justify the price when every single part right down to the cupholders is taken out of other cars. They made NOTHING themselves even tho they like to claim to have done.

[Janusha]

Oh btw.. they like to pass the Mantide off as italian. What they did was get a hold of Jason Castriota. An american / Italian that used to work for the real supercar industry in Italy and is therefore a god among men in USA where they dont really have a upper car industry at all. The car is just a re-dressed completely normal Corvette. Except now it costs 2 million dollars and looks like a storm troopers helmet. But not in a cool way.

[thisDUDE]

front end looks like ass

[5093329225]

why does it have corvette on the screen ?

[jdawgman05]

@5093329225 because it was built off a zr1

[MotokenUchia]

i just cant stand the front of this car, and the paint work looks so cheap!

[jhgarcia90]

SInce when do europeans create their cars based on american sports cars... that's pretty sad :-/

[Zargator08]

@jhgarcia90 americans have tons of money so they just said that to have some lol

[p0pe1991]

@jhgarcia90 Because europeans are our bitches

[BBSrecords]

[MorpheusKazar]

Great car!

[neothenose]

Jason well done!!!!!!:)

[Janusha]

Its.... amazingly ugly. From behind it looks like Darth Vaders helmet and not in a good way. Who in their right mind will pay 2 million dollars for a redressed 100 000 dollar Corvette that even has the corvette logo still on it. They are only making 10 of them.

[GR3ML1N0]

i agree!

the ugliest car ever!!

[EvgenyF86]

it looks more as a marsian car)) and transmission is not comfortable i think for a good control

[NineTailedNarutoFoxB]
