It may look like a car out of a video game, but the Talos XXT is the real thing. Based on a Ferrari<\/a> 599 GTB Fiorano, this British creation pushes the boundaries of artisanal coachbuilding. The price tag? Over $1.1 million, not even including the cost of the donor model. But be warned: only five examples will see the light of day. Five, not one more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Ferrari 599 GTB, halfway between road and track<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Born in the Talos Vehicles workshops in the UK, the XXT retains the heart of the 599 GTB: a naturally-aspirated 6.0-liter V12, boosted to 674 hp - more than the GTO. It also retains all the charm of the Ferraris of yesteryear: an available manual gearbox, an engine without turbo, and a raw sound.
The result: 0 to 100 km\/h in 3.5 seconds and a top speed of 330 km\/h. Figures worthy of a modern supercar, in a design that pays homage to the 599XX, the forbidden racing version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Visually, the Talos XXT makes no compromises. Its all-carbon body, huge fixed spoiler, wide fenders, prominent diffuser and forged gold wheels give it the look of a tuning car out of a video game. The result is visually stunning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Talos, everything is made to order. The carbon molds are used only five times, then destroyed. And no two models are identical: paint, upholstery, finish, engine configuration - everything is customizable. A customer can opt for an all-Alcantara racing ambience, or on the contrary for a grand touring-style leather interior. Even the sound of the exhaust, the geometry of the chassis, or the presence of a roll bar can be adapted. The watchword: absolute exclusivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jamie Thwaites, Director of Talos Vehicles, sums up the project's philosophy:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/use><\/svg>\n

\"We're not selling a car, we're selling a work of engineering. An experience. A way of asserting individuality.\"<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

An exceptional creation at an exceptional price<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The starting price is set at \u00a3850,000 (around $1.11 million), excluding the cost of the base model and options. A staggering sum, certainly, the Talos XXT appears as a last cry for love to the naturally-aspirated V12 with manual gearbox. A wild, red monster that's absolutely irresistible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
