They have only made 8 so far and 7 are driven as everyday cars. I'm 80% sure I want one.
Gull Wing doors, 4sec 0-60, 650kg, cheep as hell to service and run.

pah come on when have I cared how a car looks, the MR2 looks like a frog. The downforce that front and rear make is incredable, it grips the road like it was glued to it s:) :) s:)
Quote from: "WoodenDummy"the MR2 looks like a frog
That's exactly what I was thinking when I bought mine s:lol: :lol: s:lol:
Doesn't really matter, since I don't have to look at it when I'm having fun IN the car...

So true!
I almost ignored the car after seeing the first pics, but then I started to see rave reviews about it in the net...and after a testdrive I just had to get it.
*prepares for flames*
but what exactly is it?
It's a Dare DZ.... see here http://www.go-dare.com/dz/dzhome.htm

hmmm, kinda looks like a (slightly!) more sensible 340R s:D :D s:D
and only 22K as well - the choice of cars gets harder!! s:lol: :lol: s:lol:
the silver one on the site looks a little like a zonda (or is that just me? s:lol: :lol: s:lol: )
EDIT: Hmmm, resizing that avatar has made it looks really shite and blocky s:? :? s:? s:twisted: :twisted: s:twisted:
Looks like they started the design at the back working forwards and ran out of paper, paint or money.
s:? :? s:?

Tell me about it. Shocking.
I woulod far rather have their G4 which is beautiful and based on a very successful race car design from the 60's but with modern running gear....
Andrew
Have to aggree. I'm sure the DZ is a great car but I'd be going for the G4 every time.
Besides, there is only one car out there that I desire, just one and it's this:

Now that's a pretty car.
Nothing better than a gorgeous Italian, huh?
An Alfa Romeo????
Which model is it?
Quote from: "victor"An Alfa Romeo????

It's called the 8C. Not as nice as the Brera though. I wonder if it will make it into production.
Alfa Romeo 8C
Looks very prodution ready...
400bhp V8...
*spent*
One of the few cars that would get more looks than the '2!!!! s:shock: :shock: s:shock:
I "kinda" like it in a weird way.........bets its good to drive though, so who would care?
Can I have a go when you get it Dummy? s:wink: :wink: s:wink: s:lol: :lol: s:lol:
Btw...since you seem to get many rare japanese gems in UK, do you have any Tommykaira's over there?
I have only ever seen one at a track and at a show. NEVER on the road. I think they really ARE very, very rare pretty much anywhere.........
That Alfa is gorgeous, but not sure its a gorgeous as the Brera, which is going to be the next GTV, albeit slightly modified. I hope they don't wreck it..........stunning thing........
Quote from: "John Woodward"That Alfa is gorgeous, but not sure its a gorgeous as the Brera, which is going to be the next GTV, albeit slightly modified. I hope they don't wreck it..........stunning thing........
Sorry John, I have to disagree with you. The Brera will not be the next GTV. The Brera will be a £100,000 supercar (if it ever makes it to production).
However, irrespectively of whether it will make it to production or not, it's styling will be cascaded down to the rest of the range, as can be seen in the new 156...
I could have sworn that in this months Car mag, they said the new GTV will be based around the Brera.
Hmmm......me thinks I will go and have to check this out.......
Not arguing mate, just confused now...... s:shock: :shock: s:shock: s:? :? s:? s:wink: :wink: s:wink: s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

I hope you are right... It is the most gorgeous car to come out of Italy for a decade...
hmmm, now that's a bit gorgeous!! those last two shots resemble the tamora a little if you ask me....
I will check later Emmanuel. Will post it up here. I could be horribly wrong though....... s:wink: :wink: s:wink:
As for the 8C, yeah, it does have a sort of "TVR" look about it, but I also think that "coke bottle" shape also has a hint of side on Elise to it too, especially around the wheel arches.....
Hmmmmm.......Ok Emmanuel, this is what "Car" said about the Brera, interpret as you will..............
"There will be a new GTV in 2005. The GTV will be a three-doorm four seat car available in front wheel or 4wd. Desigen chief Egger describes the GTV as the production derivative of the Brera, Guigiaro;s fabulous 2002 show car"
Doesn't say that the Brera itself is going into production, but something very like it is to be the next GTV. Interesting stuff. Either way, whatever car comes out looking like the Brera is going to be a stunner, regardless........ s:shock: :shock: s:shock:
