At Cars and Coffee this past weekend the highlight of the event was the arrival of a rare sight, the Apollo Gumpert. For those out there that do not know what the Gumpert is, it is essentially a German manufactured street legal race Super Car. Composed of mainly carbon fiber and fiberglass, this German masterpiece weighs a hair less than 2600 lbs, which is pretty damn light for a car that comes with motor options of ~ 640, 690, and 790hp. Seeing this thing in person was pretty inspiring to say the least, and it sure as hell reminded me of a transformer. Mayday Danh and Mayday Slappy caught some pretty good photos of it on Saturday so enjoy.

I f*ing love serials like this on cars.  The font, the exclusivity, the fact that it is on a crazy ass German Supercar reminds me of GUNDAM for some reason. Pew pew

Plenty of Carbon Fiber and Stitching, what you would expect from a 500K ++ car.

They say that the Aero on the Gumpert is so bad ass that it will drive upside down in a tunnel at 190 + mph.  That is insane.
