Donkervoort D8 GTO

Power-to-Weight Ratio: 400 hp / 1,543 lbs = .259 0-60 mph: 2.8 seconds Top Speed: 168 mph Few have heard of Donkervoort and even fewer have witnessed in person the awesome performance of these Dutch creations. Following the same equation as the Caterham, the D8 GTO is another evolution of the Lotus Seven’s original weight-reduction formula. Carrying a 2.5-liter TFSI Audi five-cylinder engine tuned to 400 hp and 310 lb-ft of torque, the Donkervoort teleports Chapman’s philosophy into the 21st century. Starting at $130,250, this devilish creation is an affordable way to trounce every competitor on the road and look oh-so-mysteriously classy while doing so.
