If I were to pay $280000 for a car, then apart from being fast it would also have to be good looking. Adn this just isn't it

Oh yes i read something about it some months ago, it is build in Switzerland.
They project to make a C113s with an MTM tuned Audi engine with 641 bhp. ops:

[pedrohmb]

yeah...the Volvo engine is only used in the prototype.
With an MTM tuned Audi engine, the orca free willy will reach 360km/h

651bhp ?? It goes fast enough with the 375bhp !!

I think it would look a lot better with fatter and larger tires all around. The front looks okay to me, but the back...is a lost cause. I wonder how it handles.

[Caplax40]

Looks good to me, but the front bumper should be a little more rounded and not so jagged at the bottom!

I saw the Orca time ago... the shape is damn strange.. but beeing Swiss I have to say it must be a good car

[yg60m]

I don't know if you remember the prototype of the Bugatti EB110, not the definitive shape but the one that was used to develop the car, it was very similar to this.

[Schwalbe]

The Orca looks good, and thats true it is very similar to Bugatti EB 110 prototype.

[corvette97]

the shape is a lil strange, but the back end reminds me a porsche gt1, the front end ts too pointy but its like a bugatti eb110, and the lambo doors, i like this cars in fact i love that this is a SUPERCAR, cuz' it is a supercar, and has an inline 5, shit fuel economy on a supercar!!! and its dam fast, i would definitely buy this one instead of a 360 or a gallardo

That car is too ugly for $280 000, sure its fast but it doesn't do it for me

[TeflonTron]

I think that there are faar too many straight lines, and I agree that the tires look very skinny.

I just realised there is also a nice 15 MB vid by Auto Motor und Sport around the net

[SupraPolak]

It looks too boxy and almost incomplete. Those headlights looks like they were just shoved on there at the last minute.

This is what happens when you develop a car with engineers involvement only IMHO Throw in a couple hairdressers into the development team and you might end up with something that looks decent and goes like phuck too
