India, meanwhile, has never produced a flashy supercar.

Sarthak Paul, a 21-year old entrepreneur, is trying to change that. The recent university graduate has embarked on a starry-eyed quest to produce India's first supercar, with help from a team of automotive engineers based at India's Manipal Institute of Technology.

Paul calls his fledgling car company Mean Metal Motors (MMM). The automaker has already produced a couple of planned concepts, and if all goes well, Paul hopes the first physical prototype will be ready for a showcase at the 2016 Paris Auto Show. He's calling his creation the "M-Zero."

Paul cannot be accused of lacking ambition. With an estimated price tag of $125,000 to $150,000, M-Zero aims to compete with the world's fastest and most powerful cars.

The plans call for a supercar that can accelerate from zero to 60 miles per hour in less than three seconds, and achieve a top speed of 200 miles per hour. The mid-mounted engine will produce more than 500 horsepower, and be partially powered by a hybrid electric power plant.

The M-Zero will also feature a fingerprint system instead of keys, and allow users to create a "profile" that will activate their preferred driver settings. These include their favorite seat position, air conditioning settings and music playlist.
