New 320bhp car emerges from Korea
Proto Motors' Spirra offers 0-60 in 4.4 seconds
There's a new sports car on its way from Korea, according to the Dutch publication, Autoweek. Proto Motors' mid-engined Spirra was shown at the Seoul Motor Show and will first appear in Korea only in 2006, though it will be exported later.
It's powered by 4.6-litre 320bhp V8 with some 300lb-ft of torque, propelling it to 60mph in 4.4 seconds. You'll also be able to specify a supercharged version.
Proto also wants to build lower-powered versions, presumably so it can build in greater volumes. The first is a 2.0-litre turbocharged version with 280bhp offering 0-62mph in 5.2 seconds and 131mph top speed. The other will be a supercharged 2.7-litre V6 with 240bhp, and 0-62mph in 5.5 seconds and a top speed of 140mph.
If your Dutch is up to it, find out more here.
