A mini EVO??

I was browsing around and stumbled across this article:

Its a 1.5L turbocharged Colt for the South African market. It even has a front mount intercooler. I'll admit this thing is ugly as sin, but it is kind of cool at the same time.

I saw a prototype pic of a colt that looked like that a while ago...the new colt in Europe look just like that, but I don't know if they ever produced an "evo" version.
I'd rock it, reminds me of a bad-ass Chevy Aveo.

Yuck, even I wouldn't drive that thing.

"Oh yes, and there's an inconsequential pony among them called the Colt CZT with a 1.5-litre, turbocharged, 112kW engine and serious attitude problems."

And whats with rating the engines power output in KiloWatts?

"itll deliver its knockout punch at 150 bhp at 6000 rpms"
More like a finger flick.

1 horsepower is 748 watts. 112000/748=149.73 HP

Wow, that kind of looks like the car from the movie "Just Married". Pretty ugly, and it looks uncomfortable. I wouldn't drive one it you gave it to me.

Make a nice sleeper.

hahahah i can't think of picking anybody up in that. they would open the door and ask where the seat is or if they should ride on the roof.

that thing has to weigh a whole 2200lbs.

150hp in a 2200lbs car equals roughly 250hp in a 3200lbs car.

so it'd probly be just as fast as a WRX, or even a bit quicker.


but gawd is it ooglay
