The music composer, Giorgio ‘Together in Electric Dreams’ Moroder was involved in the development of this Gandini-designed supercar. The Shelby SuperCars Ultimate Aero XT had a claimed top speed of 273mph and a 9,200rpm redline. Was this Alfa Romeo’s first genuine supercar? Who cares, we could look at the 33 Stradale all day.
If you detect a hint of Porsche in the front-end styling, that’s because the Commendatore was the work of former Porsche designer, Eberhard Schulz. It’s not difficult to imagine a Vector W2 appearing in an episode of Miami Vice. By the time it was ready, it was already obsolete. The Jaguar XJ13 was intended to go racing at Le Mans, but the development took too long. It remains one of Ford’s best-ever creations. Readers of a certain age will remember the Ford GT90 as a pretty handy Top Trumps card. It also packed a 850hp punch, courtesy of an AMG-sourced 6.0-litre V12.
Oh, Chrysler, this is a stunning looking creation. The Bentley Hunaudieres was unveiled at the 1999 Geneva Motor Show and bears a passing resemblance to a certain Bugatti hypercar. That’s a truly remarkable figure for a 650hp supercar.

With a full tank of fuel and a driver, the Swiss-built Beck LM 800 weighs a mere 900kg. The Hulme CanAm isn’t a car for the faint-hearted. No roof, no airbags, no windscreen, no ABS and no traction control. It would look better underwater… Hulme CanAm Spyder
The Panoz Abruzzi looks like a cast off from the decidedly average League of Extraordinary Gentlemen film. When we first prepared this gallery, TranStar Racing was looking for backers to make the 2,000hp, 315mph Dagger GT a reality. The Keating Supercars Bolt arrived in a blaze of glory in 2013, with bold claims about a 340mph top speed. Ladies and gentlemen, here’s your Top Trumps winner. Can anyone smell bacon? Keating Supercars TKR Zenvo ST1įans of Top Gear will remember the Zenvo ST1 as the Danish supercar that caught fire on the Top Gear test track. The difficult to pronounce – not to mention spell – Arrinera Hussarya is Poland’s first attempt at making a supercar. The OX99-11 of 1992 was its attempt at making a supercar. Yamaha’s role in producing the achingly good looking Toyota 2000GT is largely forgotten. It looks great, has a brilliant name and pumps out some 2,000hp. This thing ticks even more supercar boxes. The Tramontana is unlikely to feature on many bedroom walls, but with a choice of V10 and V12 powertrains, and styling inspired by the world of F1, it ticks many supercar boxes. OK, so you’ve probably heard of the Bristol Fighter, a uniquely British take on the supercar formula. Lotec claimed the 1,200hp engine in the Sirius supercar was enough to give it a top speed of 248mph. Giorgetto Giugiaro’s brief was simple: build a mid-engined car to accommodate a W12 engine and VW’s four-wheel-drive system. The Ascari KZ1’s 5.0-litre V8 engine was sourced from the BMW M5 and helped to give it a top speed of around 200mph. Power was sourced from a twin-turbocharged V8. Only two road-going R390s were ever built, so this Nissan is as rare as it is stunning. Longer than a football pitch and complete with six wheels.

The one-off Italian supercar is powered by a 6.2-litre supercharged engine sourced from the Corvette ZR1. The Icona Vulcano isn’t made from volcanic ash and powered by molten lava, but it could top 220mph. Stay tuned for crazy styling and even crazier levels of performance. For us, it’s an opportunity to revisit 49 other supercar obscurities. The ADR 630 Shooting Grand, which pays homage to the original Austro Daimler ‘Bergmeister’ of 1931, will make its UK debut at Salon Prive in September.
