Aurelio - The First Filipino Supercar. This is the Aurelio – a sleek, pretty-eyed wet-dream turned supercar, built by a four-man Philippine crew called Factor Aurelio Automobile. The Aurelio’s profile nips at the handsome contours of the Ferrari 458 Italia, the doors have an air of McLaren P1, and the rear end picks up some cues from the Lamborghini Aventador. Underneath the sleek body lies a tubular space frame chassis affixed with a turbocharged Mitsubishi 4G63 four-cylinder that allegedly boasts 457hp per ton, capable of shooting the Aurelio up to a top speed of 186mph. According to The Manila Times, about 80 percent of the car’s components were sourced from within the Philippines, with the only exceptions being the wheels, brakes, engine, transmission, and a few suspension components. -Scientist
