New Lancia Stratos - I want!

[OnTheOverrun]

Lancia are testing a new Stratos and I want one:

[jas xjr]

Nice

[frosted]

I was in Italy the other month and some sort of crap that lancia is putting out literally falling apart on the road

[Streps]

Much better than the Modern Delta abomination

[davepoth]

Isn't that just an old Stratos in a bodykit?

I quite like some of the Lancias. The two-tone ones are especially striking.

Any more info?

I wonder if they'll do me one in Alitalia colours with yellow wheels. . . . . .

and a rumour in Car and Driver mag that it's based on modified Ferrari 430 chassis and drivetrain. . . . . . . .

Thing is, I saw that pic years ago... as confirmed by the reg. Not convinced it'll see the light of day in production.


Then again the Stratos has had a lot of publicity recently. Maybe they're tempted to fettle the concept and make it! I hope so.

[Road Pest]

Hope so too.

Autocar reckon lancia aren't behind this one, it's a one off for a very rich person. It is a shame lancia don't appear to be able or choose to make nice cars. The delta is vile. I never thought I'd ever say that about an italian car as I love them, I just don't understand what angle they're going for anymore. The fulvia concept was so beautiful.

And pretty much anything anything else they make at the moment:



Most of their range seems to be of the unimaginative jelly mould type, but with that ghastly grille slapped on the front... Would be rather good if they actually made a desirable car, that Stratos looks fantastic.
