Anyone help shed some light on one of these?

I've had a look and not found any info on this car as a standard! I've now narrowed my choice of replacement for my Cerb to one of these. The one I've fallen for looks amazing and is almost as quick as the Cerb on NOS!

I'm being told its highly modded to just over 600bhp and around 700lb. It certainly feels very quick.

I'd be very greatful for any info on these!

Thanks,
Craig.

A bloke near me here in Ireland has one. It's an absolute monster. I got passed one evening like I was stopped in the road. The sound was like a Spitfire - I had the window down because I thought it was an SL55 from the exhaust, but the difference in tone and aggression from the sound was really impressive, I noticed to the detriment of my ear drums as it passed.

I've never seen or heard a car so subtle yet with such phenomenal power. On the face of it, it could have been a regular SL. That's what I liked about it. As above, it's 550BHP standard. You also get the cool red engine cover.
