Providing what’s undoubtedly a needed visual reprieve from all the over-the-top, modded pimpage that makes up SEMA’s bread and butter, the HTT Plethore LC-750 is the latest supercar coming from an unknown start-up designer. No, it’s not from Italy. Nor Germany. Not even Russia. This one hails from our hockey-stick-toting neighbors to the north. Yes, a Canadian supercar. Before you scoff too loudly, take a second look at the picture and consider the design.

Crafted for both street and racing purposes, the Plethore combines a lightweight carbon fiber body (just over 2,500 pounds) with the LS9 engine from the Corvette ZR1 tuned to 750 hp. It’s matched with a six speed manual transmission. The start-up doesn’t intend to stop there, as a planned turbo version will put out a whopping 1300 horses. On the cusher side, the Plethore offers hydraulic swing-up doors that open at the push of a button. No hard performance data yet, but the price is expected to be somewhere in the $600K slot for the standard and around $1M for the 1,300 hp version. Production is supposed to begin later this year. Then again, the car’s designer also mentions that building a helicopter is next on his list, so we’ll see if this one ever gets past the prototype stage. [via AutoBlog]
