Bulleta Motors is a California-based niche sports
car manufacturer and it’s got quite a surprise for all of us. The RF22,
inspired by Lockheed Martin’s F-22 Raptor jet, is the company’s new sports car
and it looks awesome. It’s actually based on the Lotus Evora, which shouldn’t
come as a surprise once you dive deep into its overall shape and some of the
details that went into improving its aesthetic and aerodynamic character.
Bulleta takes it up to a new level with
the RF22, giving it enough added goodies, be it in styling or the supercharger
it developed in-house, to give this sports car some serious bite. The Bulleta
RF22 will be powered by a 3.5-liter V-6 engine with a Bulleta-designed HTV 2300
Supercharger thrown into the mix. Bulleta claims that the
RF22 is capable of producing 505 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque, good
enough to hit 60 mph in just 3.6 seconds with an estimated top speed of about
190 mph.
No word yet on how much the RF22 is going to cost,
but Bulleta did say that each buyer will also take home a "custom made,
individually numbered, Swiss mechanical chronograph time piece, matching the
serial number of its companion car."
