NZ Supercar - The Hulme
Named after New Zealand's only Formula 1 World Champion. Denny Hulme in 1967.
"Since the onset of the project, the concept of the Hulme.F1 supercar has been a mid engine design with a high-tech powertrain and chassis that gives the driver the feeling of driving a Formula One Car on the road." As seen at a local motor show in Wellington (For any of the Kiwi's 2 Hot 2 Handle @ the Stadium), New Zealand. To be powered by a modded BMW M5 V8 pushing out 450bhp. Weight claimed to be 1175kg.

Slight repost but I think the last time it was posted it was a huge video of the unveiling so I think you'll get away with it. 450bhp and 1175kg wont be anything ground breaking but still pretty spectacular. I love how theyve done the headlamps.

How many pounds is 1175 kg? But I think it sounds like a cool car.

Danm it's awesome, I love the design! It must have downright spectacular handling considering it has the same basic body design as a F1 car. And it doesn't way that much rockfella....it could be alot lighter but I think 2600 pounds is pretty light.

I read it was well under 1000kg's. I really doubt its 1250kg's.

it does seem to look very long and the engine wouldnt be to small.....About 1100kg seems about right. The should have designed it to be 800kg, that would be much better
 bbbrooooommmmmmm............

Should be interesting, it wouldnt feel like the safest car to drive though with the open wheels and thin front end, but i suppose thats all part of its appeal.

Buttugly was the first word that came to mind the first time I saw this car, but it has begun to grow on me... I'd be glad to test drive it!
