The Half-million dollar car with a 8.0 liter Viper engine

Like the title says. Its true in the UK. It is called the Bristol Fighter. Not the best looking but it is fast. And sporting the ole 8.0 liter V10 Viper motor. The 1012hp version is just the Viper 8.0 motor with a Tubrocharged (go-figure!!!!). They are saying it is the most rarest car @ 150 cars made. More Hp and faster top speed than the Bugatti Veyron!!

Reminds me of a TVR. Not too ugly, but not my style. Love the powerplant though

Looks like a 3rd gen RX7 and a TVR mated.

HIDEOUS. Ill just get a TT Viper if I want to go fast and look good with that V10 engine. And it would be a HELL of a lot cheaper. For that money I could get 2 used Gallardos and TT them. Waste of money this Bristol.

BTW the front is trying to be RX-7 and the rear looks like its trying to channel the old Shelby Daytona Coupe. This thing is nasty from every angle. Also the Gen III-IV Viper interior is better looking 440,000 Euros

Most stupid car ever, I'll TT an ACR Viper and spank that thing. Looks like an old acura Integra with a body kit.

Thats the most dated looking "new" car I've seen in a while.

Its a Bristol which equals awesome.
Quite possibly the most eccentric car company on the planet.
Its styling (like all Bristols) is predominately dictated by the wind tunnel, the Fighter (depicted) I believe has a Cd of 0.28


I might be the only one here to do so, but I would climb over a Veyron to have a Fighter T.
