The Anibal Icon is a new Canadian supercar built by a company most known for tuning Porsches. That know-how was obviously put into the Icon, which has a [Porsche](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/964-cabriolet)-sourced flat-six engine making 920 horsepower. The engine is a twin-turbo and mid-mounted, with power sent to all four wheels.

The makers of the Anibal Icon say it will do 0-60 mph in 2.4 seconds. If that's not enough to turn heads then the car's design certainly will. The body is made of [carbon fiber](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2027-bentley-continental-gt-supersports) and weighs in at just 3,400 pounds. It has a brash and bold design that's also functional with several active aero elements adorning the exterior. Only 50 models are set to be made and pricing has not been revealed yet.
