And apparently, the DA engine comes from a different (Chinese)company!

I'll let you keep your spot in the queue since I didn't see these were missing before, but can you include the engine displacement and transmission please?

Engine displacement? (Sorry for double posting)
 
Added displacement, but noticed an odd detail, the Wiki page said it was available with two gasoline engines, and the powertrain under the first picture you see on said page only mentions both of the SQR engines, but not the DA, engine, despite the fact that, after googling the DA engine with the Chery QQ, i found out that it is an existing(and used) engine, so, where does the DA465Q come from?
I found out the answer, from a different company called Hafei Motor! :lol:

Production I believe was 3 units (BMW NA via BMW Blog)

Holy guacamole! I gotta get home and do another nominee, FAST!


EDIT: Done.

Spano was born as the fastest and most powerful automobile ever built in Spain for commercial purposes. In short, it is the car that will mark an era..


2013 Spania GTA Spano


GTASpano26.jpg


Source.

After 20 years of top automobile motorsport, Spania GTA decided to take one step forward and make director Domingo Ochoa's dream come true; build a supersports car that combines all the automobile technology with perfect sportsmanship, elegance and exclusivity.

Designed by Spania GTA's engineering director, Valencian-born Sento Pallardó, GTA Spano boasts the most advanced technology, innovative aesthetics, researched aerodynamics and a good number of solutions for the future, all of which are capable of competing with international prestigious brands in terms of both image and performance.

As a sign of its exclusivity, only 99 models of this extraordinary supersports car will be built to order and several world patents have been obtained. Indeed it is a car that is the beginning of an industry which leads to not only job creation, but also the transfer of the resulting technology to other sectors of society.



Production Year: 2013

Body Style: 2-door Coupe

Price: $725,000 (£470,000)

Engine: 8.1 liter, central rear longitudinally-mounted Viper V10

Power Output: 925 Horsepower

Torque: 900 lb ft

Top speed: 217 MPH (350 KM/H)

0-60: 2.9 seconds

Transmission: 7-speed manual or automatic, with sequential or paddle shift

Length: 4,648 mm (183 in)

Width: 1,979 mm (77.9 in)

Height: 1,199 mm (47.2 in)

Weight: 1,350 kg

Tires: Pirelli P Zero

Drivetrain: Mid Engined, Rear Wheel Drive.

My Take On This: I'd say, we put away the Ferraris and Lamborghinis; this is European art at work. Only trouble is how expensive it is (approximately 2 Aventadors), and how, i think, the Viper V10 engine, kind of makes it seem.. odd.

Alright, there's been a constant 60+ cars in the queue lately and I've been getting requests to step up the polling. So here's how we're going to do this:

> Like this post if I should poll 2 cars every other day (like I've been doing already).
> Send me a PM if I should poll 3 cars every other day.
> Quote this post and say "third option" if I should poll 2 cars every day.

This will go on until 6 AM EST tomorrow (1/22/15).
