Gumpert Apollo S in Forza Motorsport 3

 

Historically, one of the criticisms leveled at Turn 10 Studios’ Forza Motorsport franchise has been that it didn’t give much love to the more obscure boutique automakers of the world relative to the big dogs. That’s been rectified with the downloadable Forza Motorsport 3 car pack for the month of May, which features 10 rare, unusual, and oh by the way, scorching fast supercars.

 

Two of the ten cars – the Devon GTX and the Spada Codatronca TS – are polarizingly-styled coachbuilt specials based on ground-pounding American sports cars (the Dodge Viper and Chevrolet Corvette, respectively). The remaining eight are built from the ground up: the stylish Spyker C8 Laviolette LM85; the wild child Gumpert Apollo S; the twin-turbo and tail-happy Rossion Q1; the BMW M5-powered, neo-Austin-Healey Weismann GT MF5; the thunder from Down Under Joss JT1; the sleek American Mosler MT900S; the pigmy LMP1 racer Radical SR8; and the all-American Veyron-stomper, the SSC Ultimate Aero. How do these monsters look and sound in action? Make like any of these cars at the Nürburgring’s Pflanzgarten corner and jump!

Rosson Q1 - Front

 

The Rossion Q1 will offer a great balance of form and function with racing inspired design and performance but with road car creature comforts. The suggested drive chain provides 450 bhp and 400 ft. lbs. of torque in a mid-mounted engine. The frame itself is only 2500 lbs which results in an impressive power to weight ratio.

 

The Q1 does 0 to 60 in 3.2 seconds and runs a 11.4 quarter mile with a top speed of 185 mph. The chassis costs $69,000 (US). Including drivetrain brings the completed cost to $90,700 (US). Orders started being accepted in July of 2007 with deliveries commencing imminently.
