Venturi 400GT Twin-Turbo

Description

This is a very special and rare supercar. A forgotten French brand called Venturi was once a big itch on Porsche's nose when they released the Atlantique and the 400 in the 1990s. They were well-built, fast and stylish luxury coupes with a sense of obscurity and was a decent alternative to a Porsche 911. But when Venturi released the 400GT they headed for a bigger target, Ferrari. The 400GT was a limited run, all out supercar that had a twin turbo Renault V6 engine that produced 408bhp and speeds in excess of 190mph. As you can see from its provocative looks it very much looks like the car it set out to beat. The Ferrari F40. And it nearly did until Venturi suddenly and sadly hit bankruptcy. The 400 GT is very rare. They only made 14 and this one is the only right hand drive ever made. Thanks to the owner for showing me round and telling me the cars history, I found it very interesting indeed.
