That title is an oxymoron in the purest sense. What a branding nightmare for this car.
Also, NA and only revs to 7500? Did they learn how to build engines from Aston Martin? Uninterested |

A 7,500 RPM redline isn't too bad for a 5.0L V8. The E39 M5 had a 7K RPM redline and almost 5.0L but it didn't make anywhere near 650hp. In fact, I believe at 650hp, the Volvo Polestar (if considered a production car engine) would have the most powerful naturally aspirated V8 engine. Surpassing the SLS Black Series' 6.2L V8 (which redlines at 8K RPM).
