Small Car Quiz

I was somewhere recently and took these shots. Do you know what they are (they're all very rare!)?

I've photoshopped any logos off them. ;-)

[Hugo a Gogo]

Cizeta V16 and a TWR XJ220

dunno about the 3rd one

[Sy1441]

I thought the top one was an Esprit but you're definitely right.

[istoo]

i thought diablo/espit for top one
XJ220
and corvette/saleen for the bottom one.

[GrahamF430]

Hugo is correct.

Top one is the very rare Cizeta Moroder V16 - the Gandini design which went on (in an roundabout way) to become the Diablo.

Middle one is indeed a Tom Wolf Jag XJ220

Bottom one.... a clue? Okay,... 9 were ordered. This is No.4. I believe only 5 were actually made. Value is in the millions. Special order of a car which shares it's chassis with a known iconic model.

Could it be a Ferrari FX perhaps?

It is indeed a Ferrari FX. It was bought through Williams Motorsport as they did the gearboxes. The chassis is from the Testarossa.
The others are still with the Sultan of Brunei who ordered them. This one is owned by Dick Marconi, of the Marconi Auto Museum, where the photos were taken. This is in southern California.

I'll have to try harder next time. :-)

Very nice collection.

I do like seeing these rare beasts.

The collection includes 2 F50s, an F40, many other older Ferraris, 2 DeTomaso Panteras, some rare special editions, a lot of race cars including Schumacher's 1996 F1 Ferrari, and a heap of memorabilia. It's an awesome museum - over half the cars are regularly driven.



A lot of nice Shelby's too
