I've never been a big fan of SUVs. The whole idea of having a $200k people mover when you could have a mean sports car instead just doesn't compute.
Noone is going to use one of these to pull anything or go off road, and they'res no way that they'd be able to keep up with the high-end sports sedans on a track.




This said, if they make it, people will buy it.

Well they are both "crossover SUVs". i.e. SUVS that don't really serve any utility purpose. Their reason for existance is that of a glorafied station wagon.

Do you really think so? I was thinking that if they really put this thing out, the suspension might put this in a leadingi class for SUVs in that category.

I think it would probably be the best for an SUV, maybe in the crossover SUVs; but in the end its still an SUV and will not out performe a comparable car on a track. (NOTE: on a track. You can make trucks with enough torque to take on any car in a straight 1/4).

I think the LM002 was originally built as a military vehicle... I remember seeing them available with rocket launchers in the back.
