Re: What are the differences between....

the car is completely made in house from what i have found out. cant find the price of it though but its hits over 245 the only problem is its apparenly not street legal . one of the coolest features is that you can manually adjust the suspension and that its almost entirely carbon fiber kevlar blend.
in my opinion totally worth having

Ford can only dream of making such an engine.

Re: What are the differences between....

the bodys are slightly different as well, in particular the side vent the CCR has a CCR badge above it the CC8S has nothing and the CC8S vent is rounder where as the CCR vent has a point to it

also

the CC8S used a ford V8, the CCR engine (and all engines since) are built and developed entirely in house
