Classic cars: Fast, beautiful, Superveloce – You should know these Italian sports cars
Limited hypercars from legendary Italian brands are in vogue: at high-speed festivals like Goodwood, they are in the spotlight and are achieving record values at auctions. A look back.
Italian supersport cars, such as those from Ferrari and Lamborghini, have a significant impact on society and culture. The Ferrari Luce "Chassis 0" recently sold for a record $40 million at auction. Limited edition Lamborghini models, like the Fenomeno Roadster, sell out before production begins, a feat that other hypercar manufacturers like Rimac and Czinger can only aspire to.
The revival of British car brands like TVR, Bristol, and Jensen has stalled, while Italian Gran Turismo from the area between Bologna, Modena, and Maranello continue to fascinate. The competition among Italian supersport car makers began 60 years ago, with the goal of building the fastest Superveloce, in response to successes by Ford and Toyota.
