Introducing the Xtreme X1 Concept

[mc_blue]

Hi all,

Basically, this is a proposed new sportscar from West Midlands based Xtreme Automobiles (sorry if this is a repost I couldn't find any information on this concept). The vehicle is currently exhibiting at the Autosport International Show at the NEC. Having seen the vehicle in real life I have to say that it is quite a pretty thing. My favourite aspect is the rear view which looks quite different to anything else I've seen.







Here's more information on the car below:

Edit - the proper name is X-Works X1 Concept Car

Alfa brera mated with Audi/Rover V8 grill mated with Audi TT mated with MGSV?

Don't like the back end much...

Back end's not bad - looks like it's paying a little homage to T-Bird's light cluster of yesteryear.
Looks quite small - Elise size?
It also look like it's sitting on a slope or was that just you? Presuming you took the photos.

The pictures are lifted from the site - one of my drivers took some snaps when they were just setting up the stand at the show (I’ll upload them when I get a chance.)

It is based on an Evo chassis so it is a reasonable size - but very light. Last time we transported it it didn't even have lights and wasn't painted - now it looks great. I think the rear is very T-Bird too.

Interesting. The styling makes me think of the Prodrive P2 and the Connaught Type-D.

Why is it always sports cars? Wouldn’t it be better to start with something small like lawnmowers or farm machinery and progress on to more complex machinery when your company has the capital available?

From the back it looks very good and distinctive but from other angles I see bits of several other cars in the overall mix.

Boosted.

Xtreme is what used to be Ralliart before it went official iirc.

So they do have a fair bit of capital and experience behind them.

Still, when you see the Prodrive P2 made from a Scooby, then this made from an EVO, it start sto look a little familiar....

I quite like that.

Ballpark price?

"Projected retail price for the X1 is £45,000"

Looks sharp IMO.

The front is great, the rear is an ugly mess.
