[/h2][h2]Barabus TKR: 0-60 mph in 1.67 secs, 270 mph top speed[/h2][h2]
Do we have your attention? The Barabus "1005 bhp" supercar we've been updating you on has finally been unveiled and the details on this machine are astounding.It's a true Italian-built exotic, though its twin-turbo 6.0-liter V8 that produces 1005 bhp is sourced from the U.K. According to Barabus, that motor willpropel the all carbon-fiber car (body and chassis) to 60 mph in a mere 1.67 seconds, and on to a top speed of 270 mph. For those who didn't think thissupercar was meant to be a Bugatti Veyron slayer, the new Barabus website that just went live today states,"The TKR is designed to compete with the world's fastest, quickest, best handling, most luxurious grand touring cars in the world" (ouremphasis). Barabus will be producing 300-400 TKRs over a three-year production period, and fetching one will cost you £360,000 (USD$700,000). A sharp bargaincompared to the Veyron's £600,000 (USD$1.1 million) asking price.[/h2]
