A car like a fighter jet

Dare to drive this one?

May the Force be with the driver.

And especially with the other cars' drivers.

Paint it black and slap a fleidermaus sticker on it.

Simply wondering how many yards to the gallon it'll do

Is it stealth to police radar?

I cant wait to see Jeremy Clarkson drive it on Top Gear.

Would often meet a 'clever' driver who would say something along the lines of "You'd never be able to catch me if I didn't want you to driving this car".

The stock answer was usually "Bet it can't travel faster than a radio signal".

No one has beaten the police radio.

They write it has a V10 engine with 600 HP. The chassis and cockpit are exclusively build of carbon fiber and aluminum. The cockpit is isolated, and removable as a complete entity, like a capsule. The car has flaps on the roof and back that move according to driving and speed conditions.

And yes, the surfaces are covered by a coating that should absorb radar.

No joke, that's what they write.

Still can't beat the lines painted on the road and a bear in the air with a stopwatch.

Precisely...and the look on their faces a few miles up the road where the terminal blockage is constructed is worth a beer or two

Good luck trying to get it over the speed bumps in 'Traffic Calmed Areas'

It seems the side windows cannot be opened. That is to prevent the driver reaching out his flat hands into the wind - flying without holding the helm is not permitted.
