No-no GTRene, not your spelling! I wouldn't presume to comment. I'm referring to your outrageous Lambo banner-waving

they called it the 'FX'. I'd call it a Lamborarrati...

Some rather lovely Maseratis there but given this a really rare thread how about digging a bit deeper?

The Quattroporte I is proof enough that the Italians can do big four door cars (not that I’m biased) and isn’t she lovely?



Now I appreciate these are not right up there on the looks front with some of your own choices but I bet you haven’t seen one recently? The cynical would say it wasn’t really a Maserati but actually they don’t share very much at all with a Longchamp except rust!

no photo, but I know of the existence of a Renault 25, fitted with the biturbo V6 from the Safrane dubbed 'Le Monster'.

The story goes the 25 was a Renault mule saved from the crusher.

Mclaren M6GT only a few where made? between 1969<>1970 strange looking though in this color rather nice


1969 McLAREN M6 CT
V8 6.0 LITRE SPORTS COUPE

Chassis No. 02 this is what they say about it;
Another car was finished as a high performance road car for Bruce McLaren's personal use, it featured a mid-engined Chevrolet V8 giving approximately 550 bhp, mated to a Hewland L.G. five speed gearbox. It had a full aluminium monocoque with bonded steel bulkheads and side mounted fuel bags. Bodywork was in polyester fibreglass and it was a striking and potent looking machine.

Chassis No. 02 therefore was the only road car built as a project by Bruce McLaren and the car was later owned by Denny Hulme and Phil Kerr in New Zealand before finding its way to the United States.



Bruce McLaren's personal road car




Mercedes and Mclaren are both famous, so is this lovely Mercedes 300SL Gullwing Coupe 1954<>1957 yummie


just to show how a modern version could look like...





the steering wheel was something specialy too, for an easy acces you just fold it in? how you say that?

A French industrialist loved Jaguars but wanted something that had the space and luxury of a Jaguar, the style of an Italian but which was French. He came up with the Monica GT in the early 70's of which a mere 20 were made.

I think that's pretty darned ugly too. Sometimes you can understand why some of these cars only sold a few.
