I can't believe I forgot to mention what the Four Twelve meant, I must have been more tired than I thought when I posted it. <img border="0" src=smileys/smiley36.gif border="0"> As Spyder mentioned it has four turbochargers on it(Four) and the (Twelve) is, well... the V12 thats in it. <img border="0" src=smileys/smiley4.gif border="0">

It Looks like a bad A** car! I love everything on that car except fot the lights on the whale tail (spoiler)... It kinda throws it off but its definately unique! I wonder how much the estimated price chryslers gonna put on that thing?</P>

OOoh, I loved the tail lights, they match the headlights,and I think it flows really well with the spoiler, but I see your point. :) I LOVE it... I can't imagine the price... Hehehe... that's a fabulous car! :)

I'm assuming it's automatic due to the absence of a shifter? Or is it in the steering wheel like the new Grand Prix's?</P>

I never really paid attention to it before, but I noticed that the interior shot is CG and not a picture of the actual interior. I wonder why they did that when the thing has already been built. <img border="0" src=smileys/smiley5.gif border="0">

The ME-412 is not a concept car! I have the press kit coming this week sometime and will post more information. What it is, is a prototype which will start testing next month. It will be testing sometime in May at the Chelsea Proving Grounds. </P>


The car was built by Metalcrafters in Wixom, Michigan. Matter of fact, they just finished it on December 29th. The car was rushed to NAIAS, in time for debut.</P>


Wolfgang Bernhard has said that this car is to take on the world's supercars... and give Enzo Ferrari and run for his money.</P>


Hearing that if the car is made for production, expect 300 units a year (maybe less), for an estimated price of $450,000. If this car is produced and can run a 248mph top speed, it will be the fastest production car in the world, and will be half as much as the F1 supercar.</P>

YAY!! Outstanding!! I suppose that too expensive to make it into a race car, but OMG... still... what a FABULOUS car to have around! Chrysler did a very smart thing producing the ME Four Twelve... I can't wait to see the first one on the road... :)

Is the engine on the ME 4 12 going to be a HEMI? If not, what does "ME" mean?

The ME means Mid Engine, Four Twelve is Four Turbochargers's and 12 Cylinders. ;)

Never!!!!!!! The viperneeds to stay N/A at least from the factory anyways because the more H/P the factory can squeeze out of it N/A all the more power when Hennessey gets a hold of it. Oh and the ME Four Twelve is sweeeet.</P>
