Well if the car is under 2000 lbs, Id say 300 is fine...

The engine is good. But it's not adequate for such a car.

Sam Hansen Jul 05, 2012
Probably a VR6...

The pricetag for the Artega was 74.000€ (90.000$) without VAT. I've driven one about a yerar ago, was a nice little car. Too bad they have to close down the company. Estimated production figures are 180-250 cars.
