The Apollo 3500 GT is unmistakably a sports car with Italian contours. Inspired by the European icons of the time, like the Jaguar E type and especially Pininfarina’s extravagantly expensive designs for Ferrari. But the Apollo 3500 GT is not purely Italian.Under the hood is a V9 engine made by the US auto maker Buick. 3.5-liters of displacement are the source of the sporty sound and the power in this car that weighs only about 1,000 kilos. At the top of fourth gear, the 200-horsepower Gran Tourismo runs at 210 km/h. That was pretty fast in the early 60s. Only about 70 Apollos were built, all betwen 1962 and 1968. It's estimated that 40 of them are still around.
