Zenvo ST1-50S




Zenvo ST1 50S
For the low price of 125 Honda Civics, you can get your hands on a Zenvo ST1 50S, a Danish supercar with the power, price and rarity to match the Bugatti Veyron.

While the ST1 has been around since '09 in a limited 15-car run, the ST1 50S is designed specifically for the American market and will be available this year. This new version ups the power to 1,250 from 1,104 horsepower and massages out 56 more lb-ft of torque, giving the new model a mind-bending 1,106 lb-ft of twist.

But if you have the money and the stones to tame this supercar, you're still probably out of luck -- there are only three coming stateside. Naturally, one is red, one is white and the other blue.
Discuss.

A head to head between the ST1 and the Veyron SS should make it one of the best episodes on Top Gear whenever it airs

That is a cool car! I've never seen one before. I know I couldn't handle 1,250 horsepower though.

If I saw this bearing down on me as I saw it from the rear view mirror it would scare the bejesus outta me.

I dont care who you are, if you put the pedal of this car on the floor (where it belongs), you will have:

-Post traumatic stress disorder
-pooped your pants
-accelerated or decelerated the rotation of the earth, based on what direction you were facing when you punched it.

Not a fan of the looks. I think it's ugly.
