Description[]
Vulture is an original design by Mark Jones that debuted under the First Editions subset of the Mainline in 2000. It depicts a low-profile two-seat sports car with 850 HP and a 500 cubic inch fuel injected V8 engine armed with a hidden rotary sawblade. This design and styling of this casting went on to inspire the later Vulture Roadster.
Vulture was featured in the Hot Wheels: World Race film driven by Skeet.
