    This is a Russian answer to Lamborghini and costs only 1/3 of the price.
    Renault built the engine.
    Will it be real competitor to Ferrari or Lamborghini soon? I think YES.
    Marussia also means Mary (name, Russian)

    Looks like a mutt. Bastard child of a Lambo-Vette-Ford GT threesome.

      Unless plain Jane pickup trucks ever cost $140K in my lifetime, I can't imagine ever spending $140,000 on a vehicle.

        With $140k, I'd get a plain 911 and pocket the remaining 60k.

            Why?
            I know that people can say Porsche, Mercedes, BMW.
            But this is a completely different market segment and this car is no worse than Ferrari or Lamborghini, it's price is very realistic how much such cars should cost. You can't compare Rolex Daytona to Patek Philippe. I love Rolex more, but same I know what is Patek and why it costs more. This is something else and Russian engineers and industrial designers are no worse than those of Porsche.
            Germans don't make spaceships, Russians do it for 50 years. I think this is real value for the money.

              It just doesn't appeal to me. I'm sure engineering wise its a great car, in Cuba you see lots and lots of russian trucks still running smooth after 30-40 years.

                In other words it's not your style and Russian saying is: "About the taste no arguments"
                Marussia will give a real kick in the ass for Lamborghini, Ferrari, Maserati, Aston Martin and Swedish Koenigsegg.
