14 Sports and Supercars Which Never Made It to the US Shores

13. Lotec Sirius

The Lotec Sirius is one of the most obscure European supercars produced by the Lotec Company in early 2000’s. The prototype caused much attention when they first presented it in 2001. But ever since, the news about this crazy supercar has been scarce. Some people say Lotec made only two examples, while others say the Sirius never progressed beyond the prototype stage.

However, the Sirius is still one of the most powerful, interesting machines out there. The heart is a twin-turbo Mercedes-derived V12 engine which produces around 1,300 HP. With a five-speed manual transmission and just 2,800 pounds of curb weight, the Sirius is unbelievably fast. A 0 to 60 mph sprint takes less than 3.7 seconds and the top speed is an amazing 285 mph.
