Thanks to its lightweight body, exceptional aerodynamic design, and active suspension, it showcases the fastest responsiveness among British luxury sports car brands.

The original selling price of the Senna is reported to be around 1.4 to 1.5 billion won, but the current listing has a higher price due to the limited edition premium.

Online communities have reacted with various comments such as, "A wheeled Banpo Xi," "Even if I win the lottery, I can't buy this," and "With the registration tax, I could buy a decent imported car."

For reference, the mentioned Banpo Xi is a luxury apartment complex in Seoul, where the current market price for units measuring about 66 square meters is around 3 billion won, while those measuring about 99 square meters are priced around 4 billion won.
