Vector plans to make a production car

[caraudiodave]

i got this news before anyone else. i was at work on saturday and i saw two vectors parked outside the hotel i work at. while looking at them the owner of the company came out with some investors. apparently they plan to make a production model.

no designs as of yet from what i heard, but the designer was also there (not len, who claims to be their designer). the twin turbo BMW v12 sounded incredible.

the tw cars that were there were the teal coupe (license plate: VECTOR 2) and the purple roadster (license plate: VECTOR 7).

anyone that can find pics of a possible new model post it up, but it didnt sound like anything is made yet.

not exactly breaking news - although it is exciting

they were at The SEMA show in atlantic city this summer - and the fuk master flex show as well....promoting the upcoming news

I will search around to see if anything from those 2 shows made the net

hot company though and hot stuff to come I would assume

yes their stuff is hot, but i must say that the fit and finish was kinda crappy on one of the cars. the side view mirror (on the teal one) looked to be made of tinted plexi-glas and was jsut siliconed together. on the other car, the side mirrors were inside the door and you look through the glass panel in the door. kinda bazaar.

I believe they did that with the original vector W12 too, with the side mirrors inside the window. They do it to reduce drag at 200+mph. :D It would be weird looking at them from inside though. Not that rear visibility is very good in any of those cars anyway... or even that important since anything behind you won't be there for long. :heh:

naw it was the w12 i was looking at. they didnt have a concept car there, which is why i dont think they have one. if they do, then its not a running model. they took the investors out for spins in the roadster. i swear, when that thing started up it drooled out of both heads.
