The 2013 AmoritzGT DoniRosset
 
Brazil's Very Powerful Supercar

 

 
     In 2013 a Brazilian man named William Denis Rosset decided to commission perhaps the most powerful Brazilian supercar for in honor of his father Donino Rosset. That car was originally going to be called the Amoritz GT DR7 in 2008 but production was halted. However in 2013 the car was revived as the AmoritzGT DoniRosset.
     The DoniRosset is a mid-engine (possibly rear-wheel drive) supercar that is equipped with an insanely powerful Dodge Viper-sourced, ethanol converted 8.4 liter V10 with twin-turbochargers. This engine delivers a monstrous 1,007 horsepower. Top speed and torque on the car are currently unknown as this car hasn't been road-tested by anyone.
     The DoniRosset's chassis is made of carbon fiber and the body is made of aluminum. The prototype's construction took 35,000 long hours due to a small 6-man team. The suspension uses a double wishbone setup with a pushrod. One interesting feature of the car is that the AmoritzGT logo on the DoniRosset is made of 24 karat gold and has two emerald stones on the side to make the logo look like the Brazilian flag. The emeralds are colored yellow and green. The DoniRosset will use a Mendeola 6-speed sequential transmission.
     The interior of the DoniRosset is copied from the McLaren F1  and features three seats with the driver's seat in the middle.
     AmoritzGT plans to create 50 DoniRossets and price them all at $1,000,000.
