Barabus (Not Brabus) Sports Car – 1005 hp, 270 mph

Barabus Sports Cars ltd. (not Brabus, the Mercedes and Maybach tuners,) have been working on a car with over 1000 horsepower for over 10 years. It is said to reach 270 mph, and go from 0-60 in less than 3 seconds. It will be powered by a Twin-Turbo 6.0L V8, and is rumored to cost less than $500,000.

The front of the car looks like a Lotus Elise:

The car is set to be unveiled in London this week. When considering that the Bugatti Veyron cost over $1 million and barely pushes 1000hp, the price seems a bit unreasonable, but then again the Hennessey Viper Venom has been doing it for years. Not to mention, the Venom costs less than $200,000.

The design is at least questionable. The front (pictured above,) looks like a Lotus Elise, and the rear a Pagani Zonda:

    If its weight was marginally lighter than the Bugatti, i can understand why its acceleration is better. That what i cant believe. lets say the TKR is 1000lbs lighter, if the Bugatti is 1000 lbs lighter too it would blow the TKR right out of the water. period.
