New Gumpert Apollo Sport - $400,000 get you 223mph

Feb 27 2007, 7:20am CST | by Luigi Lugmayr

I just received some press-martial from the German Gumpert Sportwagenmanufaktur informing about their new ultra expensive and ultra fast Apollo Sport street legal sports car. The Apollo Sport is a nice break from the Eco-Friendly and green cars and totally not politically correct these days.

Gumpert already introduced the Apollo last year at the Geneva motor show. This year they introduce the Apollo Sport in Geneva.
The apollo sport is equipped with an extended aerodynamic package and, in contrast to the three part spoiler of the apollo, possesses a racing wing which gives even more down force and pushes the spollos’s maximum speed up to 360 km/h (223mph).
The standard version of the apollo sport costs 299,500,- € plus VAT. (~$396,000).
The Apollo features a tubular space frame in chrome-molybdenum steel with integrated safety monocoque fabricated in carbon-fiber passes all crash-tests regulations, while a cashbox offers additional protection.
Other features of the 2-seat sports car are air-condition, CD-player, navigation system and reverse view camera.
The Geneva Motor Show 2007 will start on March 8th.
Visit the Gumpert site for more details.
