The Mastretta MXT

Mexico has produced it's first car, and it looks pretty good. The car is set to have a 2.0L engine tuned by Cosworth, and a turbocharger. This should give the car about 240hp, and since it weighs just under a ton, it should reach 60mph in under five seconds, and have a top speed of around 150mph.

At this point though, the car is only headed for the UK, and European markets. The car is priced around £32,999 (about $62K US at the moment) and will most likely be compared to the Lotus Elise and Exige.

You can read more about the car, catch some other pictures and even read the press release over at Autoblog HERE.
