A very limited edition of Ford GT is going to come out soon. British auto tuning company, Avro Motor Cars, is planning to make a new legend, Avro 720 Mirage. Only ten of these unique cars will be made.
The designers put 720 horsepower in this car as well as 220 mph top-speed and 627 pound-feet torque. Accufab provides a throttle body, an inlet sleeve and an x-pipe exhaust system. An enormous supercharger is made by Whipple.
Avro has orange color with black details. Its front and rear track is wider than it used to be what provides stability to a speeder like that. The car looks sporty because it is very low above the ground. 720 Mirage does not have a rear bumper, but it has a six-pot caliper which provides stopping power.
The Avro Motor Cars company already has experience with super rear cars. Their limited 600 RE models are owned by people in different continents. They hope 720 Mirage will impress the market as well. Right now they are already proposing to preorder the car for $362,400.

Many manufacturers are trying to create the best eco-friendly cars, this is why each auto show is full of hybrids, electric cars, bio-fuel and low emission technologies, and things alike.
