Bristol is one of the craziest companies in the world. But it’s not because of its models, which are strange. It’s more for its business policy. The company barely made any money for decades and operated only one showroom. They sold only 1 or 2 cars per year and refused to modernize its lineup for decades. However, they somehow managed to survive. In 2004, Bristol decided to introduce a new model with uncompromised performance and a fresh design. That was how the Bristol Fighter was born (via Autocar).

The chassis was custom-made with a unique body that featured Gullwing doors and a long hood. The design of the Fighter has no resemblance to other Bristol cars, but it carries the tradition of using Chrysler engines. The fighter has an 8.0-liter V10 from Dodge Viper rated at 525 hp.
