I'll try to make one of those posts where you feature a car too, tell me if I succeed. :ugeek:

edit:

Ok, it's not as easy, mainly when the car is unknown to almost everyone, finding information can be tedious.

Jay Leno Ecojet '06
Image

The turbine itself is a Honeywell LTS-101, like the ones used in Bell 222 and U.S. Coast Guard Dolphin helicopters. It puts out 750 bhp. A four-speed automatic transaxle was adapted from a C5 Corvette. They had to use an automatic because the turbine requires a constant load because the jet runs at 60 percent of its maximum 48,000 rpm at idle.

0-100km/h Time = 3.8 secs
Top Speed = 400 km/h (Predicted)

You can just copypaste information and re-organize all of it into a new post, I do that most of the time, sometimes I come with the text by myself, a few examples of this includes the Volkswagen W12 Nardò, McLaren F1, TVR Cerbera Speed 12, Jaguar XJR-15, Bugatti Veyron 16.4, Alfa Romeo TZ3, etc. :geek:

Pontiac Firebird XP-21 '53
Image

By 1953, the research team had produced the Firebird XP-21, later referred to as the Firebird I, which was essentially a jet airplane on wheels. It was the first gas turbine powered car tested in the United States. The design is entirely impractical, with a bubble topped canopy over a single seat cockpit, a bullet shaped fuselage made entirely of fiberglass, short wings, and a vertical tail fin.It has a 370 HP Whirlfire Turbo Power gas turbine engine, which has two speeds, and expels jet exhaust at some 677 °C. The entire weight of the car is 1,134 kg and had a 100 inch wheelbase.

At first, Conklin was the only person qualified to drive it, and he tested it up to 160 km/h, but upon shifting into second gear the tires lost traction under the extreme engine torque and he immediately slowed down for fear of crashing. The car was later test driven at the Indianapolis Speedway by race car driver Mauri Rose. The car was never actually intended to test the power or speed potential of the gas turbine, but merely the practical feasibility of its use. The braking system differs from standard drum systems, in that the drums are on the outside of the wheels to facilitate fast cooling, and the wings actually have aircraft style flaps for slowing from high speed.

0 - 100 km/h Time = 4.8 secs
Top Speed = 320 km/h+ est. by GM

HTT Pléthore '08
Image

The HTT Pléthore is the first Canadian super car, developed and produced by HTT Automobile in Quebec, Canada.

It debuted at the 2007 Montreal International Auto Show as a pre-production prototype under the name "Locus Pléthore", under the supervision of Luc Chartrand. It has a supercharged V8 6.2L powered 750 hp (560 kW) (torque 655 lb·ft (888 N·m) was displayed or an optional high performance home made engine of 1,100 hp (820 kW). The chassis and body is made entirely out of carbon fibre with no engine subframe hence the chassis is exceptionally rigid. The car will weigh approximately 1,089 kg (2,401 lb) and, if mated to the 1,300 hp (970 kW) engine, will have a power-to-weight ratio equivalent to that of a Formula One race car. Two prototypes were constructed, the second suggests a centre seating position previously featured in only the McLaren F1, 1966 Ferrari 365 P prototype, and the 1969 Bizzarrini Manta Concept. HTT Automobile will custom build a limited lifetime production run of 99 Pléthores.

Now that's interesting :think: Didn't knew that you got a file like that :P
Anyway, back to Honda's :D

Also, i have discovered dead links to:
  • Alfa Romeo Brera Sky Window 3.2 JTS Q4.
  • Alfa Romeo GT 3.2 V6 24V (this one though is because my anti-virus see the website as dangerous).
  • ARO 244.
  • Aston Martin Virage.
