Wow...

I have been following development of the car on facebook, and was starting to think it was only going to be a race car because of some of the developments and components on it.

That road version is simply stunning.

Same here... been looking very impressive so far.

Looks like an Enzo for the modern age!

exactly what i was thinking

its the car (design) la ferrari should have been!

+ 1 for looking like a modern Enzo.

Funny that his last project was to make an Enzo look completely different, then on this project he makes a LPM2 to look very similar to an Enzo.

Still, looks very nice!

In the bottom left pic, it looks like it has the makings of a PH logo on the roof! (Presumably the door hinges)

Here's an interesting video from track test last month. Glickenhaus speaks to camera. As do the Italian crew.

Apologies if this link / video is redundant.

Great little clip, thanks a lot!

Now he just needs to fit a naturally aspirated V12 in it.

Lol, I saw that^ and thought "ooh, not nearly as kind from this angle", before reading a bit more and realising it was a different car. No-one can out ming Nissan, eh?

[exceed]

Genuinely VERY interested in this car, looks incredible.

Great to see another road car with some serious aero.

Hi

We are offering both road and race cars for sale as well as conversion kits road to race which is easily done.

We can make road version totally bespoke including a 12 should you wish.

We will have a two car team at the N24.

Hope to see some of you at Geneva or at The Ring.

Best!

Car is awesome, I really hope Spa let you race at the 24h as well, a group of us are going and it would be great to see the car and team.

[redroadster]

Yes yes a super car what actually looks like one please aston martin compare your new racer to this road car and realize how boring your designers are.

[Mastodon2]

st the bed, that looks absolutely mint.

So has the actual Mr Glickenhaus just outed himself on PH? Might end up regretting that - after 16 pages, "Napolis, is this your Ignis" might get boring =)

He's always been open on threads about his cars.

Not quite as communicative as Flemke, but still appreciative of his comments - it's like an interactive version of a 'PH meets' news article...

Napolis is confirmed without doubt as being Jim Glickenhaus. If you look at previous posts and pics it will assure it.

I just wish he'd post a bit more often, the bloke is living the dream of many people here.

We all speculate about what we would do if we had a large amount of cash, Napolis is putting his money where his mouth is.

Fair play and best of luck, that thing looks brutal.

Oh look.

[bobberz]

No offense to Jim, but I much prefer the P4/5.

This does strike me as looking like an Enzo mated with an LMP1 car, and I'm not particularly fond of the styling of either.

That said, I massively respect him for doing what HE wants. He is one of the ultimate PHers.

I wish him good luck in his latest endeavor from a fellow American. Incidentally, a good friend of mine went to his house a couple years ago for some sort of open house.

Is he planning on selling these or just on off's for himslef. I recall another PH'er years ago at the GFOS looking over the P4/5 making comment and a random american coming over to chat to him. Turend out it was Glickenhaus himself and he was by all acounts a very nice chap.

That could have been me, goodwood 2007 I think? Anyways, nice bloke & that P4/5 was bloody amazing!

It's fantastic that cars like this are actually coming to life from small independent companies. A spectacular machine and a proper race car for the road.
