We’ve covered Iron Curtain sports
cars before, namely the FSO Syrene Sport, which due to the political control in
Eastern Europe was never going to reach
production. This though is another glimpse into what the eastern bloc designers
were capable off, and my it looks good.
A supercar from behind the old iron curtain in the early 1990’s, just one of the many companies entering the supercar market. Unfortunately with only 220bhp and a top speed of 153mph from its bespoke mid-mounted air-cooled V8, its was a little underpowered in the world of the 200mph hypercars that were already on the way. By 1993, 2 years after its introduction a reported 4 cars had been built before the plug was pulled. it’s a shame because it had the looks, I suppose you say it was all fur coat and no knickers.
