Ginetta G60 Unveiled

Ginetta has presented its new range-topping G60 sports car, a limited-productiom mid-engined creation that brings back the mid-engine layout to the company’s line-up after over 20 years.
The vehicle is based on the carbon fiber Farbio GTS, with Ginetta having acquired the company that builds this car back in March. However, it comes with extensive changes for the carbon foer tub, body and running gear.

This is a vehicle focused solely on performance, with the project loosing 400 kg compared to the Fabio GTS and now tipping the scales at 1,100 kg. The diet has sent away all the electronic goodies, including the ABS, as well as the power steering.

At the center of the car, we find a 3.7-liter naturally aspirated V6 engine borrowed from the Ford Mustang, which delivers 310 hp. Ginetta also offers a 410 hp supercharged GTS 400 version, which should play the o to 60 mph (96 mph) game in under four seconds and offer a top speed that exceeds 165 mph (265 km/h).

The engine sits on a new tubular steel subframe, separated from the carbon fiber tub, being mated to a six-speed Ford gearbox and sending its power to the rear wheels via a Quaife limited slid differential.

All this performance comes at a price - the Ginetta G60 can be yours for GBP68,000 (EUR78,980 or $104,490 at the current exchange rates).
