What do you guys think of the Gumpert?

[BD]

Just saw that on Top Gear, the sucker went by their track faster than everything they have tested up to that point, and they didn't even test the most powerful one.

Even though most people considered it cosmetically challenged, the over all shape is actually pleasant to me. I like the snorkel!!!

Oh man...the Gumpert Apollo is awesome.

I love how the whole exterior is pure function driven. Funny how Richard was saying there isn't a good view of the car, and how it's not attractive from any angle. But none of that would matter because of the purpose behind the car....to go FAST! I would love to see someone drive the Apollo upside down in a tunnel though, that should be their next challenge on Top Gear.

I love the car, I don't know why they thought it was so ugly.

Im not a fan, not horrible but far from stunning. Kinda looks a little like a Veyron:wink:

 

[SENNAF1]

It looks to hard to get in and out of..I do like the variable tcs

 

[Energy1]

Rather have a Koenigsegg

 

[xknowonex]

Sick car but the name sounds like a fat kid on a short yellow bus

They brought it out to cars and coffee and it got stuck over a speed bump

Rather have a Koenigsegg

Or a real open wheel race car, since that's all this is.

Rather have a Koenigsegg

3x the price?

I actually like the styling a lot.

Saw one up in person in Santa Ana out of all places.. I went to go get an estimate for my vehicle and I saw it in the corner, detailed and ready to go. At first, i had no idea what it was or the value of it. I spoke with the owner of the shop, who repainted the vehicle, and told me what a headache the car was.

Headache in a sense of liability and paperwork involved. He was under strict orders to never let the vehicle leave the facility, locked up, and not to have any dust/debris enter the car when repainting..

Because it is ugly! Looks like the bastard child of an RX-8, Audi TT and a hint of Veyron as Mr. Kid pointed out.

 

[NSXLuvr]

How much do they cost?

I am think a few other cars I would buy first!

 

[omega2]

I like it. It reminds me of the futuristic transformers I had as a kid.

 

[heySkippy]

It's a good enough looking race car, but for a street car I want l little more of a nod to style. Just a little.

Do you get the Capri-Sun sticker for free when you buy the car? If so, I'll take two.
