Who would ever think that one
of the winning cars participated in the supercardom is made by Filipinos? The Aurelio,
a glossy, beautiful, eye catching supercar, just won the World Cup contest in
supercardom was built by a four-man Philippine crew called Factor Aurelio
Automobile.
Aurelio’s striking body
composition is made of of fiberglass-reinforced-plastic with what looks like a few carbon fiber bits and bobs distributed throughout inside. In its lower body parts, lies a shiny tubular space frame chassis attached with a turbo charged Mitsubishi 4G63 four-cylinder that apparently brags 457hp per ton, capable of shooting the Aurelio up to a top speed of 186mph.

Most of its parts or about 80
percent of the car’s components are sourced from within the Philippines except
the brakes, engine, transmission, wheels and few other suspensions gears
according to The Manila Times.
Due to lack of financial
capacity, the four guys who built this
beautiful car had to borrow money from their relatives and even pawn off some
of their possessions just to fund their project and complete their first
supercar models.
With their current manpower, the company can be able to produce not more than 10 units each year secured to
go for about 1.6 million Philippine pesos or the equivalent of $37,000.
