I wonder what that level of protection costs. I'd also like to see it take a direct hit from an RPG which seems its most likely foe.

they should have shown what the interior looked like after.

+1, that's really all that matters. I want to see what happens when the windshield catches one of those .338 Lapua Magnums from the DSR-1 they showed, or how it handles .50BMG.

Ok so those tests were inconclusive to me at least.. Where are the interior shots? Does the car still run? Did the repeated shots finally go THROUGH the windshield? Can you drive the damn thing away while they are hosing it with lead? Damn thing didnt even budge when they tried to blow it up tho LoL
