Its been a bit of a white elephant and its a kit car, do a search in PH and you will find many threads on it.
Can have anything from a 4 pot up to a v6, so a supercar it is not. MR2, accord and civic type r engines the norm.
Started in USA I believe and they went bankrupt, then the rights have now been bought up (few years ago now) to Czech Republic, funnily enough they still want USD for any they sell.
The original K1 is nice, the latest GTR model looks awful.
Move this to kit cars to find out more.

I have noticed a car called a K-1 Attack which seems to be turning up at some of the Supercar meetings.
Can someone please give me an insight into it, as I have never seen one before and wonder if it runs a Ferrari or Lamborghini engine?
Can't you use Google? Is it too difficult for you?Can someone please give me an insight into it, as I have never seen one before and wonder if it runs a Ferrari or Lamborghini engine?
I have never written a post like this before because generally I follow my own, shortly to be proferred, advice, but i just cannot understand posters who simply reply to a question or observation with the withering 'why not use google' replies and similar.
I imagine that a significant percentage of the posts on here and other forums could be answered via Google, but (a) this would lead to significantly less active boards and so less of a sense of community and (b) sometimes the replies from a specialist board like this will give interesting tidbits of info and personal experience that add something beyond what a simple google search would return.
Also I see 300/bhp has something like 30,000 posts - I am sure none of those were questions that could have benn answered on Google.
I now hate myself for having posted this as it diverts the thread but I am going to look up the K1 Attack for myself as it sounds interesting/humorous. Thanks for raising Atlantis

This is the K-1 I've seen at Goodwood Breakfast Clubs. From my brief conversation with the owner, he's had to expend a huge amount of effort getting it to the state it is now in. Certainly, out-of-the-box it was not particularly well-sorted. This was back in 2010 but it was running an N/A Honda K20a engine, with the intention being to supercharge it in due course. I actually thought it looked pretty good for something so low volume but I suspect most examples aren't up to the same standard.
I suspect the one in the photos is the same that appeared a few years ago on the back page of EVO magazine. If I remember rightly its a turbo or supercharged type r motor and a lot of bespoke and expensive details have been put on.
Think the chap worked or works in a garage mainly dealing with rolls royce and the like.

The orange one was at the Ferraghini open day a few Sundays ago.
