BORN ON THE RACE TRACK
American sports car company Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus launched its first production model, the SCG003S, at next this year’s 2017 Geneva Motor Show.
Unlike
any other supercar, that is first developed in its road version and
then evolves into a more performing track oriented model, the SCG003S is
a road car that originates directly from a true racing car, the
SCG003C, designed to compete in the Nürburgring 24 hours race, by the
Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus.
Designed and assembled by bespoke car manufacturer Manifattura Automobili Torino, the SCG003S maintains unchanged the unique spirit, the racing DNA, and the aerodynamic refinement of her racing precursor SCG003C. The unique body style and racing interiors have been preserved as well, executed to a higher standard of elegance and finesse.
The car is hand-built in Italy by Manifattura Automobili
Torino, using an integral carbon fibre chassis powered by a 4.4-litre
twin turbo engine that develops in excess of 750 horsepower. The Italian
firm is headed by Paolo Garella, who has been responsible for a number
of iconic cars over the years such as the Ferrari P4/5 by Pininfarina.
SCG brand creator James Glickenhaus said: “It’s the
culmination of a long-held dream to finally see our amazing race car
born again as a road car, using all the know-how we have taken from
competing in international races and putting it onto the road. This will
be a collectable car like no other, capturing the spirit of the road
racers that have defined automotive history during the heyday of grand
touring.”
A high degree of personalization will be possible on the
car, which will be produced to order in limited numbers from the middle
of next year. This includes the competition-derived interior fit and
finish, as well as mechanical customization in order to ensure a
tailor-made driving experience for every customer. With its unique looks
and downforce, the SCG003S elevates the hypercar to new levels of
performance and driving enjoyment.
Twin turbo V6 with 3,5 litre develops 490 bhp. The top speed of the SCG003S will be in excess of
300kph, with 0-100kph covered in less than three seconds: not far off
the figures of a Formula 1 car. This incredible performance is directly
driven by the SCG003S’s sporting heritage, with development of the road
car following on from success in competition.

Race car spirit all day long!
