Roughly translated:

The engine will be a turbocharged 2.7L v6 engine supertuned. The maximum speed will be 320km =198mph, 0-100km in 3-4 seconds (0-62mph). Horsepower will be around 470. Torque will be 500lb

They plan to produce it this year and start mass producing in 2008.

I keep on hoping, but i don't think so.

2.7 V6 .. it's too much coincidence. Though, i would like to know how much they can "supertune" it, to get 470hp .. Supercharge it I think, or twin turbo..

Thats Prototype mate......
Proto Motors is a South Korean sports car manufacturer and refitter. It was established in 1997, and has forged partnerships with Hyundai Motor Company, Kia Motors, and GM Daewoo. It introduced the Spirra (a production model of PS-ll) at the 4th Seoul Motor Show. Presently, the company specializes in redesigning existing models by developing electric cars or convertibles based on them. In 2001, the company custom-made a convertible limousine for Cheongwadae, the South Korean presidential residence.
