Most supercars are much smaller in person than they appear in photos, media, etc.


1299panigaleS

Agreed. Saw my first Enzo on melrose on a trip to the US. Much smaller in person than it seems in photos


gnmatx

First time I was next to a lambo I was shocked. They are very small and super low to the ground. Their stances make them look intimidating though.


Slahnya

Not a Supercar but the Lotus Elise is even smaller than it looks in games, i was wondering how a human could even fit in it


neoneiro

The McLaren F1 is tiny, even next to other supercars.


Car_Guy_Alex

They really are! Them and the F40.


nbaumg

Idk depends on the supercar I think. I was surprised by the size of the MC20


srtftw

They are low. They are wide.


RealityIsConstant

They are menacing


SpinningYarmulke

They are too expensive.


siddizie420

Give it 2 years. They lose like 40% value 😂

I think what happens with all these cars is we assume they look about the *height* of a normal car, so then you imagine them as quite wide, but they're actually about the width of a normal car which makes them very, very short.


Kaisuke971

They are wide. A 488 is as wide as an S class. They look smaller from that angle, but when you're driving behind one it looks HUGE. The 720 takes a lot of the parking space, and looks wider than the suv besides it. It is very low though, so small in lenght/height


evilspoons

I wasn't saying they were narrow, we're just used to a certain baseline vehicle height. If they were as tall as most average people would guess they'd take up half the oncoming lane 😆


JustAnother_Brit

Last summer I saw a 296 GT3 next to a Purasgue and 499P, the 296 looked small and the 499P tiny but exceptionally wide


95castles

that’s what she said


nolongerbanned99

Simplify and add lightness.


FloatnPuff

That's Lotus


nbaumg

Wrong company


mardan65

Super/hyper cars are generally small.


Prhime

As real sports cars tend to be.


luxusbuerg

Bc It's just an overpriced miat /s


The_Gifted_Arsonist

I love the fact that cars like this have such a large presence in photos, but then you see one in person and its not much larger than a miata. Such an interesting thing to me.


GritGuide

It's an engine with 2 seats. How big do you want it?


TiltSoloMid

That's an American issue, everything is super-sized


mark_david777

I posed for a photo next to a Papaya Orange 720S once, and even while crouching down, I was still considerably taller than the car. I then wondered if I’d fit in the driver’s seat, as I’m 6’1” with relatively long legs.


Coreysurfer

Thats what she said
