1960 Ferrari 250 GT SWB Berlinetta Scaglietti



Ovaj model, zatim Testa Rossa, legendarni 250 GTO – svi oni koristili su neku verziju istog motora i iste šasije. (Oznaka 250 stoji za kapacitet jednog cilindra u ovom slučaju 3.0-litrenog V12 motora, u kubičnim centimetrima).
SWB (short-wheelbase Berlinetta) inačica ovog 250 modela imala je vrlo laku i kraću šasiju i Pininfarina karoseriju koju je 'isklesao' Sergio Scaglietti. Karoserija je bila rađena ili od čelika ili od aluminija (bile su dvije varijante), a V12 motor pod poklopcem proizvodio je između 220 i 275 KS, ovisno o podešenju motora i željenoj namjeni. Laurenov SWB s brojem šasije 2035 GT, ima karoseriju od aluminija a trkaće iskustvo stekao je u rukama čovjeka po imenu Horácio Macedo u Portugalu. Kupljen je 1986.

Audi R8 GT Spyder


The R8 GT Coupe, while also gaining a more powerful version of the Lamborghini-derived 5.2-liter V10 churning out an output of 560-horsepower.




In the coupe, Ingolstadt’s engineers were able to shave 100 kilograms (220.46 lb) dropping the car’s curb weight of to,525 kilograms (3,362.05 lb), and improving the power-to-weight ratio to 2.72 kilograms (6.00 lb) per hp. Expect to see a similar weight reduction (and by that we mean close, not more) in the convertible model. For the record, the coupe flavored R8 GT accelerates from zero to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.6 seconds and reaches a top speed of 320 km/h (199 mph).




Though absent from the prototype model seen here, the actual R8 GT Spyder will get the same aero package as it’s coupe sibling comprising of new front and rear bumpers with additional air vents.


From what we understand, Audi will follow the example of the coupe and keep production of the R8 GT Spyder limited to 333 units worldwide.
