Farboud GT '02
When Porsche proved reluctant to sell him one of the road going versions of the 1998 Le Mans winning 911 GT1s, young British engineer Arash Farboud set about creating a similar car of his own design. In 1999, he established Farboud Limited and at the 2002 Autosport International show he introduced the Farboud GT.
Crafted entirely in carbon fibre composites, the Farboud's exterior was clearly inspired by the Le Mans winning Porsche. The long and low body covered a bespoke steel tubular spaceframe with carbon fibre reinforcements. Mounted amidships was an Audi sourced twin-turbo V6 engine, good for around 620 hp. Thanks to the use of exotic materials throughout, the GT tipped the scales at only 800 kg.
The Farboud GT remained a one-off as the company set about creating the more affordable GTS, which would ultimately enter series production as the Farbio GTS and was later developed into the Ginetta G60. After selling the GTS, Farboud established the Arash Motor Company and most recently introduced the AF8 production car. Still owned by Arash Farboud, the unique GT is today on display in the entrance hall of the Arash factory.

Caterham Seven RS Levante '08
In creating the Caterham Seven RS Levante, Caterham Cars worked with RS Performance to offer the ultimate Seven derived sports car.
RS Performance is an exclusive, niche engineering house. They offer an 'everything is possible' service to Caterham customers wanting cars built to order.
Powering the Levante is a supercharged 500+ hp 2.4 litre V8 engine, housed in a modified version of the lightweight Caterham SV chassis. With the car weighing just over 500 kgs this engine makes for a 1000hp-per-tonne ratio.
The Caterham Seven RS Levante is the most powerful production Caterham ever. Only eight cars were produced, each was hand-built by Hertfordshire-based RS Performance in association with Caterham Cars.

It's good to know that you think this about one of my top 10 favourite cars.

Be more careful with what you say in the future, Viktor.

'Disliking' or voicing a 'negative' opinion about a particular car isn't an invitation for conflict, its simply an alternative point of view.

The extendable rear wing of the roadster version plus perfectly balanced suspension set-up guarantees the necessary stability, even at top speeds. The Wiesmann Roadster MF5 is available from a basic price of EUR 189,500.

To be honest, I never added that Wiesmann before because I thought it was only available with the paint-scheme in the 3rd picture (which doesn't really look good, in my opinion), but now that I know it has multiple opitions it is now my second favourite car ever.Viktor Karpenko wrote:I thought you were done with the Wiesnmanns, didn't we have all of them on the list already?
No, we don't have all the Wiesmanns here, the difference between some of their models is just the engine. So we have the ones with unique bodywork and with the most powerful engines.
