Gillet Vertigo.5 Spirit updated with 420-HP Maserati V8

One of the most bizarre sportscars on the market, the Vertigo is also one of the lightest and quickest on the road. The previous version of the Belgian exotic made by former racing driver Tony Gillet packed a 350-horsepower 3.0-liter V6 sourced from Alfa Romeo. Modest enough, but with a curb weight of only 990 kg (2,182 lbs), the Vertigo was capable of accelerating from 0-100 km/h (62 mph) in a scant 3.26 seconds.
