Bolwell Nagari. May 08

The faired-in, four headlight front end echoes the legendary McLaren F1, while other elements capture the spirit of the best Italian mid-engined exotics.

The new Nagari is a mid-engined carbon fibre composite monocoque coupe powered by a quad-cam, supercharged, 3.5-litre V6, whereas the original Nagari carried its 5-litre V8 up front in a steel backbone chassis clad in fibreglass. It achieves 0-100km/h in 4 seconds and uses a supercharged Toyota V6 developed for the TRD Aurion.
