PGO is a small car company based in southern France and they build cars that look like modern Porsche 356. This one, the Hemera GT is, like its sisters, powered by a 1.6 liter 4-inline from BMW, but unlike its sisters, this particular one is rally car and will be driven by Romain Dumas. You know, he went to Pikes Peak a few times. Oh and he also won Le Mans with Audi.
Anyway, I should be able to see the car up close at the end of the week for the first rally it will enter, in southern France, between Alès and Montpellier.

Hey, I wanted to post about that ! Looks like you beat me to it. You wouldn't happen to be French too, would you ? In any case, I don't care what anyone says, I think it looks amazing.

Yes I do happen to be French :) The Hemera really is prettier than the other two cars PGO makes.

It says a 1.6L BMW inline 4 but I have a sneaking suspicion it's actually the Peugeot Mini Cooper motor.

It's certainly weird looking, but at least you can see out of it, unlike 9 out of 10 hot cars these days.

It looks like it.

I kind of like the Cévennes, actually. But the Héméra definitely has the most character. Anyway, always nice to meet a fellow French opponaut. Do you know if there's many of us ?

I don't know, less than 5 I would say.
