Mastretta MXT

Its production will begin in January 2009 at Mastretta's first car factory with an annual production of 150 units. Around 70% (105 cars) will be exported to Europe and the United States, and 45 will remain for national sales.

The serial-production MXT will be powered by a Cosworth-tuned[5] 2.0 liter inline-4 with 200 hp (150 kW), supercharger and aftercooling allowing it to reach over 230 km/h (143 mph) on top speed.[6]

US $55,000

Saw an article in the new Motor Trend about VW making another midengined showcar for the 2009 season. Speculation goes that it could be the base for a new mid engined Audi TT replacement and a new Porsche 356. Would make this pretty irrelevant if they decided to build.

If it's like any other automotive products I have gotten from mexico, the car will end up killing you within 6 months.

Crappiest parts ever.

Uh, the vast majority of parts on your GM / Ford / Dodge vehicle have been made in either Mexico and Canada - something to bare in mind

I had an Olds Achieva a few years ago with a cr*p load of Mexican parts. After that experience I try very hard not to buy Mexican, except my two Mayan hammocks.

Did yours have the annoying "No Start + Security light" issue?

Wow, my Volvo weighs in at around 4200 pounds and will go a heck of a lot faster than that car!! At a much lower investment!. Mind you, it will not turn quite so many heads... She is a sleeper I would expect that car to go a lot faster that 143.

The side/rear look similar to the Lizardo Fiero kit... Modified Crossfire rear?

hrm, looks like enough pieces were used to jigsaw puzzle that body togather.... maybe when they start selling them, someone can get ahold of one of them scoops and make something nice outa it?

the thing looks like several other cars mixed together.
some Nissan, some GM, and some Audi, and a touch of Ford
I dont dislike it - but it aint my 'cup of tea'

Front end looks quite a bit like Smart's little sports car...
