Supercharged Supercar: Hulme to offer ZR1's LS9 V8 Most automakers -- especially those with limited resources -- get their first production model to market before announcing future variants. Hulme Supercars director Jock Freemantle had to mortgage his house to finance the development of his pet project, whose launch has been pushed back several times already. Now targeted to go on sale next year, the Hulme will be available in both closed-roof and open-air versions, with a Corvette Z06-sourced V8 replacing the previous BMW unit. Freemantle now says that an additional version will follow, featuring the supercharged V8 from the all-conquering Corvette ZR1. In a nimble, lightweight package, the 640-hp powerplant promises to propel the supercar to epic speeds... if it ever makes it to production. http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog....2/_mg_0227.jpg http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog....2/_mg_0283.jpg http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog....2/_mg_0224.jpg |
