New Photos of the Locus Plethore supercar

Locus Technologies anticipates its creation will be ready for delivery in the fall, when a limited annual run of no more than 400 will each sell for $330,000 CDN. The 8.2-liter V8 produces 750 horsepower (and up to 1,300 hp, optionally) hooked to a Tremec six-speed manual.

	J. Badger says: Hold on guys, This is not a bad for a home made car, but it is far from being a super car. It is made of at hand materials, bearing an archaic 50 years old pushrod GM engine. If driven hard for a couple of hours the body will probably start to disintegrate. It is very doubtful that this vehicle could do more. This car is nothing, but rounded artisan replica of Lamborghinis. Unfortunately, this style is out of date for already 10 years and could impress only ignorant amateurs. Going to production and selling for $300 000 a piece is a joke. Porsche, Maserati or BMW, sell for below 100 grand, not to mention Corvettes, which are less than half this. It is good to be patriotic, but we should be realistic. My homage to Luc Chartrand for the effort, but the road to perfection is a little longer. Posted: 01/29/07 22:15
	Peter Hellis says: All fiber carbon fiber body inspired by Porsche Gt and McLaren... What are you talking about dear Badger... Get the fact before making comments... The Body is carbon fiber frame reinforced by titanium roll bars... Call Luc Chartrand before making any comment he be more then welcome to get you the actual fact that you seem to ignore... I be one of the first to purchase this car definitively not you.. HTT Technology Luc Chartrand 450-491-7040 Feel free to call. Posted: 01/30/07 09:52
	Jonathan Turner says: This car is more then cool.. Its a real F1 at 1300 Hp Carbon fiber frame! I want it too!!! Posted: 01/30/07 09:53
	James says: I can see what Badger is worried about. Really, the small production would lead me to feel more "Ultima GT-R" feel than McLaren F1. Now, the Ultima GT-R actually has one of the two highest 0-60mph sprints for s road legal car in the world. Its a noisey, rickety car, but it is solid for what it is. Given the perspective, a titanium, 1300hp engine(what type of induction, turbos I would imagine as everything else isn't capable)in an 1100kg car is a rocket. Built well enough and designed well enough, the car will be painfully quick and a force to reckoned with. The sex appeal of a Carrera GT? Oh...no, no no. Posted: 07/18/07 23:04
	James says: I meant titanium roll cage not titanium engine by the way! Aluminum block LS7 built up with twin turbos and an ultra tough transaxle would do. Posted: 07/18/07 23:05
