Damn I'm glad I can't see the front end of my 86. I might even make a new-year resolution to get that thing off my car in 18. Could have been the light and color of the car, but my first thought upon seeing it was "JFC, what an ugly front end" instead of "cool, an 860".
You don't like white?

They are one in the same front ends...

Yeah, I could see that being a hard setup to find.

This one looks interesting and it's readily available.

OP swap it out with a 2013-2016 FRS front bumper (way more aggressive). I agree the 2017 front is fugly.

Actually, I like, and you can't argue with the specs (1.9s 0-60, 250+ MPH, 600+ mile range, seats 4).

Of course at $250,000 it should also babysit the kids and provide sound financial advice.

Huh...that's not bad for aftermarket. Kind of clean and subdued, especially compared to all the other super-aggressive bumper covers out there which require an entire body kit to look even somewhat matching. Who makes it?

Nice numbers...But will it slide nice is the real question... with AWD and electricity.. me thinks not.

"Smackdown to the petrol car industry"... Let's not forget Tesla has yet to make a car that can even make it around the nurburgring under full power. I'd be surprised if this can do it. Elon Musk is a funny dude.

Still super cool.. and I definitely wouldn't mind seeing what 1.9s to 60 feels like..

He's certainly the world's best marketer, that's for sure.

Well, you can always do it for the price of admission to several amusement parks. For example, the Top Thrill Dragster at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio does 0-120MPH in 3.8 seconds so that's probably pretty close.

It's quite a rush.

Baruta is what I see it called. Not sure if that's the company or model name.

At least it doesn't have the penis looking windows though.
