Han-Chul Kim is the man behind first South Korean supercar, the Spirra.
Hand-built by Oullim Motors it features a modified mid-positioned Hyundai V8 that packs 500 horsepower, which is good enough to hit 60 mph in 3.7 seconds.
Not bad for a hand-built supercar that costs around $100,000.
The Spirra looks to have a bright future ahead as Dutch car dealer has reportedly already ordered 145 cars. Surely it is not as exotic as Ferrari or Lamborghini, but lets give Koreans some time, after all it is their first supercar.
