It does have a bunch of body movement, but it also seems to be quite high from the ground ... guess it outlines the street car aspect

Actually the F40s are faster around corners........ The F40 is a faster track car its downfall is the high fuel useage caused by the Turbos.....

The McLaren has straight line acceleration (which it does by generating lift) and a central drive position and thats it.

Another reason the F1 was not produced after the 400 units was because they never made any money off any of the cars. The cars were so expensive to make that they only broke even, and they also believed that the car wouldn't sell if it was more expensive that what it was currently being offered at.

An amazing vehicle and still my number 1 car. It wasn't about making money on this car... it was about setting a precedent... and it did! However, the one in the video isn't as nice as this one:
