Worth every L$
Excellent modeling, fast-rezzing mesh that doesn't fall to pieces when camming more than 20 meters away, excellent LOD (even at low LOD viewer settings). You can see it's beauty from the other side of the region without a problem.
Also, and very important, it drives wonderfully. It's not scripted with the utter-crap ACS kit. These are definitely the creator's own scripting and region border crossings are almost instantaneous. Seriously, better than Lusch, better than GEMC, better than *everything else* I own, I shite you not. I have hundreds of vehicles, cars, trucks, planes, boats, and NOTHING crosses borders as smoothly and quickly as this does, even in crusty old Heterocera Atoll.
Steering is snappy and responsive; you can not only stay on the roads, but you can even stay on your side of the road. The sounds are great, too. A couple of gear-shifts then a steady engine drone, like real life. Suspension, too. It's interesting to see the wheels bobbing up and down on rough terrain. The attention to detail of this thing is amazing.
ALL SL vehicles should feel like this.
Totally superb
Not only is this possibly the most beautiful car in SL, But its handling is superb.
It has a "drift" mode which, in an open space, is huge fun, though tricky on the road.
And the tyre and engine sounds are all you could ask of a high powered sports car.
The speed and power in Gear 5 is insane.. be careful, this thing can go up snow covered mountains like a rocket, and jump houses like a maniac.
It crosses sim boundaries as well as most good cars do in SL. (beware of sim corners, as usual)
It's "a bit similar" (cough cough) to the Morgan Plus 8 - they must have copied Manji !
Tale a look : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morgan_Plus_8
You can even let your friends drive a copy, though it vanishes when they leave it, of course.
I'm thinking of starting an SL "Morgan Car Club", with events for just this car. It's that exceptional.
IM me to see if I did.
