When people said Porsche’s new hybrid supercar was hot, well. . . they weren’t kidding. Watch as this state of the art hybrid sports car, ironically, burns to the ground at a gas station in Toronto, Canada. The mid-engined 887 hp supercar is capable of hitting 214 mph and can also achieve Prius-like fuel economy. The asking price for one of these ultra-rare supercars (just 918 will be made) is an astonishing $845,000. Earlier this year Porsche recalled every single one of its GT3 sports car to replace the engine after several reports of engine fires.

"Our international dealership network is being expanded at a high pace," said Mr Mueller at the Porsche museum. "In China alone, there's a new Porsche Centre opening almost every month," he added. Despite challenging economic conditions in 2012, Porsche's operating profit rose 19% to 2.44 billion euros while delivering a record 143,096 vehicles.
