Supercars Inspired by Toys?

Gumpert Apollo

The Gumpert Apollo is one dynamic supercar! Although it looks like it was inspired by a toy car, the ground-shaking 650 HP engine will attest it is definitely not intended for child's play.

Hitting top speeds of 360 km/h (224 mph), in a mere three seconds, this mean machine catapults from 0 to 100 km/h (0-62 mph).

"It has always been a dream of mine to have a car that has so much downforce, such aerodynamic efficiency that you could drive on the roof of a tunnel at high speed â€" and this car can," Roland Gumpert says of the Apolo.

One thing's for sure: Germans sure know how to build drool-worthy supercars!
