Vector Try To Enter The Supercar Market Again

[Smurf]

Reading the latest version of evo I thought to myself Vector rings a bell.

Anyway here are the specs;

- 10 litre twin-supercharged v8

- 1850 hp = 1425 kw

- 1700 lb ft = 2305 nm

- Est top speed inxs of 440kmh

- Cost, a mere US$400,000

Looks ok, definitely tough.

imagine sitting at the lights next to....anything really.

i want one.

anyway i just thought I would show this as it is leaps and bounds above everything else i have seen.

Vector? I guess 80's fashion came back- why not 80's cars?

Q: How do you make a small fortune in the motor vehicle industry?

A: Start off with a large one

[sh@un]

btw- where did you get those 'specs'?

[Smurf]

Specs came from evo magazine issue 113

[sh@un]

that site is garbage

1850hp RWD road car.....sif

looks shit to be honest, and thats' yestermonth's news. howver, I WOULD like to see it break the 407km/h record...................and not fall to pieces

[Sarumatix]

[Owgasm]

wth?

I wanna see it go!

[sh@un]

i wanna watch how quickly the company goes into administration (again)

[sh@un]

the styling 'revisions' just get more and more wacky

this was the high point i reckon (this was back when Atari pwned the console market )

looks like a NSX rear mixed with a 98 Camaro front wearing Supra headlights.

Been a while since they announced it though. like 2 years.

while at a party, do you ever wonder why no one wants to talk to you?

yup, with you on that one brother. I can picture myself cruising along in that thing listening to some a-ha, take on me, or perhaps some nik kershaw as I'm on the way to my board meeting at compu global hyper mega net.

ahh, why can't I go back to the 80s?

I don't know you any more. you've changed.

LULZ!

you definately wouldn't find any tech company with 'net' in the name to be on the board of back in the 80's

They are Supra headlights I reckon...

The R35 and veyron were many a year in the making. I hope this one goes ahead. Assuming structural integrity and quality engineering and build, I would have thought $400,000 US to be a bargain.

Does anyone know whether the Joss (spelling?) is making it to production, haven't heard anything for a while.

[funkymonkey]

Ah well, if 300ZX lights are good enough for Lamborghini to wear, then I'm sure Supra lights are good enough for Vector. Plus they'd already be DOT approved and tested etc so good to sell globally.

well we were very cutting edge back then. think cut com, or slash co. we also wore very, very thin ties.

what can I say? except:
