There are certain countries on the globethat ooze supercardom. One of them just won the World Cup in fact, and you candelegate in the comments below as to what the others are. A country thatcertainly doesn’t come to mind is the Philippines, though that couldchange soon.
放眼全球有那么几个国家生产跑车，其中一个就是刚刚赢得世界杯的德国。一般来说，没有人会想到菲律宾也在此列，但是人们的这一观念很快将得到改变。
This is the Aurelio – a sleek, pretty-eyed wet-dream turned supercar, built by a four-man Philippinecrew called Factor Aurelio Automobile.And to be honest, it isn’t exactly hard to tell what these guys were dreamingof at the time.
这就是Aurelio——一款光滑亮眼赏心悦目的跑车，由一个叫做Factor Aurelio Automobile的四人菲律宾团队建成。

The Aurelio’s profile nips at the handsomecontours of the Ferrari 458 Italia, the doors have an air of McLaren P1, and the rear end picks up some cues from theLamborghini Aventador. However, those certainly aren’t bad jumping-off points,are they?

这款车的轮廓有点像法拉利458的气质，车门则有迈凯轮P1的味道，而车后部位则借鉴了兰博基尼埃文塔多。然而，这些都并非糟糕的起点，难道不是吗？
Specific details are a bit lacking on theAurelio, but here’s what we can gather. The body is composed offiberglass-reinforced-plastic with what looks like a few carbon fiber bits andbobs scattered throughout inside. Underneath the sleek body lies a tubularspace frame chassis affixed with a turbocharged Mitsubishi 4G63 four-cylinder that allegedly boasts457hp per ton, capable of shooting the Aurelio up to a top speed of 186mph.
还不知道这款车的具体细节，但是以下是我们找到的信息。车身是由玻璃纤维加固的塑料组成，车内好像零零碎碎的分布着一些碳化纤维材料。车底下是管状的空间架构底盘，附在上面的是三菱4G63四汽缸发动机，功率达到457每吨，足以使这款车的最高时速达到186英里。

According to The Manila Times,about 80 percent of the car’s components were sourced from within the Philippines,with the only exceptions being the wheels, brakes, engine, transmission, and afew suspension components. Talk about grassroots engineering.

根据《马尼拉时报》的报道，这款车的部件中80%来自菲律宾本土，只有轮胎，刹车，引擎，传动器，和一些悬架部件来自国外。这就是草根工程学啊。
All in all, it’s an impressive design,especially considering that the four guys who built it had to borrow money fromrelatives and pawn off some of their own possessions just to finish the firstsupercar prototypes. The company can produce about six to 10 units a year withtheir current manpower, which are pegged to go for about 1.6 million Philippinepesos or the equivalent of $37,000 apop. Let’s hope these guys succeed.
总之，这款车的设计令人印象深刻，特别是考虑到这四个人是通过向亲戚借钱和抵押自己财产的方式来制成他们的首部超级跑车的。以他们目前的人力来看，该公司每年可以产出6到10部，每辆的售价定在37000美元。让我们预祝这些家伙能够取得成功。
