Vector

Vector Motors Corporation (USA) is an automobile manufacturer based in Wilmington, California. Its history can be traced back to Vehicle Design Force, founded in 1978 by Gerald Wiegert. Production of Vector Aeromotive vehicles began in 1989 and ceased in 1993. The company was later revived as Vector Motors Corporation and continued to develop sports cars. When it was founded, Vector represented the first U.S. attempt to compete with European high-performance car manufacturers such as Ferrari and Lamborghini. In total, approximately 50 Vector sports car models were developed and produced during the 1980s and 1990s, including some racing versions built primarily using American-made components.
