There's really no way to know short of sending a retired cheerleader down to squeeze information out of the crew. Be a part of the "No cheerleader left behind" program and employ one to behave in a perky manner and get us answers!
Next time you're at a track like that, ask that 20 something woman you see with a perky buttocks, upbeat personality, and low animal cunning to squeeze them for information and lift the hood.
If we don't employ retired HS cheerleaders to do such things, the terrorists have already won....

My gut keeps telling me it's Japanese, but my head keeps telling me they won't make a car that doesn't "seat 5 adults comfortably" anymore.

Veritas is a cool name for a car company, that much is obvious.

I just have trouble getting excited over yet another car sourcing a powerful engine from some other company.

But this thing looks sweet. It's probably a very, very heavily and cleverly disguised C7. The public entry is part of the scheme, as well as using bodywork from a defunct small company.

Jaguar E-type reinvented? It does have some styling similarities.

The grill has a fisker-like quality to it, no? spray a little Pam on it and you've got a non-stick skillet.

the car is going in at the public pay gate and not the normal industry gate so it's a small effort.
