Yup it sure did stand out among the other exotics in that dream car boulevard display! I would love to hear its V8 screaming on a track!

These photos really capture the extreme proportions of the car. To give you an idea of the designs potential, an evolution of this car, the Ascari A10, currently sits 2nd on Top Gear Power Lap Board http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_Laps_(Top_Gear)#Power_Laps
