Ferrari 275 GTB-4

The Ferrari 275 is a series of two-seat front-engined V12-powered cars produced in GT, roadster, and spyder form by Ferrari between 1964 and 1968. The first Ferrari to be equipped with a transaxle, the 275 is powered by a 3.3 L (3286 cc) Colombo 60° V12 engine that produces 280-300 hp.

Pininfarina designed the GT and roadster bodies, Scaglietti the very rare and valuable NART Spyder.

1966 Ferrari 275 GTB/C Berlinetta Competizione
The 275 GTB was considered the last of the classic Ferraris. The long-nose examples are considered the ultimate derivative of the 275 GTB with one of the most stunning designs ever penned by Pininfarina and crafted by Scaglietti.

The car is an icon of Italian design and craftsmanship.
Approximately 58 long-nose, torque-tube, triple-carburetor, steel-bodied examples were made.

2022 COPO Camaro - 9.4 litres

At 572 cubic inches, or 9.4 liters, the new big block is the largest V-8 ever to power a factory Camaro. The engine features a cast-iron block with four-bolt main caps, aluminum heads, a forged steel crankshaft, forged steel connecting rods, and forged aluminum pistons.
The V8 is NHRA-rated at just 430 hp. That makes it the weakest offering in the 2022 COPO Camaro lineup. One can upgrade to a supercharged 5.7-liter V8 with 600 hp. That would start around $ 140k.

120 miles. No. 26 of 35 produced. Initially available only to P1 owners. Midmounted twin-turbocharged 3.8L/986 HP V-8 and electric engine. ERS-style push-to-pass system.

In concert with a single electric motor raising the P1’s total output to 903 HP, the race car is good for a 217 MPH top speed.
