GT40 MK I
GT40 MK I
A true legend in looks and performance!
A quality re-creation of the original that beat Ferrari and finished in the top three positions during the grueling Le Mans 24 Hours in 1966. While developing the exhilarating GT40 MK I continuation, engineers went to great lengths to ensure authenticity. So authentic, that we can legally use the name “GT40”. The GT40 MK I also carries the GT40/P chassis number and is eligible for the official GT40 registry. The Superformance GT40 is available in both MK I and MK II models, and the GT40R is accepted for SVRA and HSR vintage racing. It can also be configured to race in FIA HTP international vintage racing.
The GT40 MK I continuation is built to exacting standards – in fact over two thirds of the rolling chassis parts are interchangeable with that of an original car, including the ‘monocoque” style chassis.
The Superformance GT40 MK I also boasts a pressed steel roof and beautifully finished body available in right and left hand drive.
