While a 6.2-liter V8 may seem excessive for a grocery run, the Glickenhaus 007s invites you to dream of more exhilarating drives—perhaps even tackling the iconic Eau Rouge. This model is not just a road version; it's the original race machine that clinched pole positions at Monza and Spa and secured podium finishes at Sebring and the legendary Le Mans.
Jim Glickenhaus, the visionary behind this powerhouse, insists the 007s is far from a mere road-legal replica. Despite its motorsport-grade features, such as double wishbone front/pushrod rear suspension and a formidable 6.2-liter V8 delivering 1,000 bhp, the car navigates urban traffic with grace.
- Engine: 6.2-liter V8, 1,000 bhp
- Transmission: Seven-speed automated manual
- Weight: 1,550 kg
- Comfort: Hydraulically actuated doors, nose lift for speed bumps, powerful AC system
Transitioning from daily driver to track demon is seamless. The 007s is equipped with onboard air jacks for quick wheel swaps, adjustable dampers, and configurable aero settings. These modifications unlock immense grip and speed on racing slicks, enriching the track experience.
According to Glickenhaus, "The 007s isn't just about arriving at the circuit and taping over the headlights." Instead, it's a game-changer in track-day novelties—more accessible and rewarding, turning even the simplest supermarket runs into thrilling adventures.
The Glickenhaus 007s bridges the gap between the race circuit and the everyday, merging high-performance capabilities with comfort and ease of use. A powerhouse on wheels, it promises an enhanced driving experience, whether you're hitting the track or heading to the store.
