Did the Lotus Esprit ever get posted?
The Sport 300 was rare enough with 64 numbered units hand made.
The base line for handling cars to come.

I don't have many numbers on modern cars how many made...mostly classics and a few modern I know...but if there only 64...thats rare so here it is...

Lotus 2.2 litre chargecooled engine producing 300 bhp at 6500 rpm. Reworked and ported cylinder head. Hybrid Garrett turbocharger. Additional chargecooler capacity. Recalibrated engine management system.










Nice car, at the time the fastest Lotus to date...thanks.

just 5 c12 pagani zondas were ever built, only 3 on the road, this was when they only had a 400bhp 6 litre v12 back in 1999



then came the c12 s in 2001 this time with a 7 litre v12 and 550bhp, only 15 produced



which was replaced by the c12 s 7.3 in 2002 which came with traction control and 5 more horse power, only 17 produced



in 2002 a motorsport version of the zonda was developped called the gr built by carsport america,



and from that came the c12 s monza which is built for private track use, don't know how many there are of either the gr or the monza but there can't be many



and the zonda f and the zonda f roadster with only 25 to be made of each, due to be peplaced in 2008

It's amazing how much media coverage the Pagani brand has got considering just how few cars they've actually produced. Such numbers make even the Enzo Ferrari (349 plus a few others) seem mass produced by comparison.

Very tasty: Alfa Canguro . . . one of the most important Bertone pieces . . . getting close to the Miura.






Concorso d’Eléganza Villa d’Este 2005. Best of Show. Alfa Romeo Canguro Coupé Bertone, 1964, Shiro Kosaka

Still, I'd have a TZ . . .
