2009 Mitsuoka Orochi













The Mitsuoka Orochi sports car is named after an eight-headed serpent from

Japanese folklore. In 2001 it was displayed in concept form with the production

version appearing a few years later. Aesthetically, little changed during that

period. Its appearance is exotic and indicative of a supercar, however, its

engine does not do its low, wide, aerodynamic appearance justice. The engine is

a Toyota 3MZ-Fe which can also be found in the Camry, Sienna, Highlander,

Solaraand the Lexus RX. The 3.3-liter V6 engine is mounted mid-ship and offers

around 230 horsepower. It is mated to a Toyota 5-speed automatic. Performance

figures were not shared, but judging from the 3400 pound overall weight, it is

unlikely it could keep pace with other similarly styled supercars.
