Canada builds a Supercar...

and it's not a Bricklin. :hick:

The Locus Plet (or Quebec Bomb) will have a mid mounted 500ci Chevy making 1300hp and will weigh 2750lbs (these figures are contradictory, from site to site, as well as on Supercars alone. It says 1300 in the article, then 750 in the specs).

Anyway, since it's using retro Thunderbird tailights, it's the closest thing we have to a new T-bird. ;) I'd take one, but not for the estimated $275G USD.

Tail looks like a Ferrari Enzo, sides styled after a Lamborghini Diablo, And rounded off like a Lotus Elise. Unique.:rolleyes:
 
And Chevy power to boot.:barf:

Funny, i dont see it. Diablo...nope...Lotus Elise, not close, only thing close is the Enzo and thats how the tail lights are mounted.
It's Gumby's fault.

Enzo? For real?

It has two round tailights, that's it.


As for puking on Chevy power. Who gives a shiznit who's making the 1300hp? It's still 1300hp.

If anything, it has some resemblance to the Hispano Suiza concept that was out a few years ago, and maybe a Tommy Kaira ZZII.

I don't care how many other cars inspired the look of this one. I think it's definitely a work of art. Kudos to the design team.
